I saw this commercial and loved it, showed it to Joy and she wanted me to post it; So here it is. What do you think?

Add this to your Christmas list!
Ah, technology is so great. I recently saw the 10th anniversary edition of Transformers the movie, completely restored and digitally remastered. Now an old classic that always took up too much room has been reborn. This time on your refrigerator! I think when you see this video of marble madness your Christmas list will get a couple of items longer.
“Drop a marble in at the top and watch it rattle and roll its way through the purple and green tunnels on its way to the dog bowl, or rearrange the components however you please. Naturally, any magnetic surface will do, so the system is just as comfy on filing cabinets, desktop computers and other people’s cars.
The kit is $40 (now on sale for $30!!) and includes 2 eight-inch and 2 six-inch rails, 2 switchbacks, a “tornado,” two spinning buckets, a Ferris wheel, catchbox and 12 starter marbles. You’ll be wanting four sets, at least.”
The SemiWeekly Lost
Well the worst news ever came from last night’s episode; the season of Lost will
be put on “pause” until the month of February. Its said that this way they can get the good ratings in all the rating months, without running any re-runs in between..
But first. Last week’s episode.
Well Eko died, after searching for his brother in the jungle. It was obviously a hallucination but it was still kinda creepy. We saw many flashbacks of Eko’s life and how he got to be a “priest” why he was building the church on the island, and his history of violence. In the end some huge black cloud ended up picking up Eko and slamming him around.
Second.. There’s another hatch somewhere, with a really creepy looking guy with an eye patch over his eye.
That’s about it for last week.
This week..
1. Jack refused to do surgery on Ben
2. Some weird girl burst into camp shooting a slingshot at the badguys, and then got carried away shouting to Kate about how they’re gonna kill her boyfriend.
3. Kate gets out of her cage and into sawyers and after yelling at him they end up uhh.. well. yeah…
4. Jack finds his door mysteriously open, goes to get a gun, and then finds the monitor room, and sees Kate and sawyer together snuggling. And then Ben shows up and Jack tells him. “Tomorrow”
5. So now jacks gonna do the surgery, Ben goes to sleep and jack starts operating.
6. The loser dude I don’t like (danny?) goes out and is about to shoot sawyer when Jack cuts an incision in bens liver sac? and radios danny that if he doesn’t do what he says Ben is going to die
7. So Kate and sawyer are now about to run, and when they get free they will radio jack to tell him that their safe and jack will fix Ben. …. maybe.
So there are a lot of unanswered questions. I guess we’ll just have to wait till FEBUARY to find out.
Graphics card back… almost
I sent my ATI Radeon X800 XL back last week to get fixed, they overnighted it to me knowing how important these things are, but the stupid FedeX guy only knocked softly, so I come home waiting for the FedEx guy and there on the door is one of those things that says sorry I missed you, I just wanted to tick you off and make you wait another day. If you would like to pick up your package it is available at 6:15pm at this location which closes at 6pm so please call ahead to find that out. ARG So tom, hopefully the new/fixed graphics card will be placed back into this wonderful computer. Not a moment too soon.
Saturday morning cartoons
A video of Chase for your Saturday morning.
Best PS3 Preview I’ve seen
Cnet posted a video highlighting the PS3 expo in NY. It’s one of the best REAL previews I’ve seen on the PS3 that is available Nov 17th from 12-12:04am.
Also, if you were one of the unfortunate ones to invest in a core duo from Intel, sorry it’s already out dated. Intel is now shipping the Core Duo Quad. AKA Core Duo Extreme. The core duo made a big splash b/c of it’s speed and the new Core Duo Quad is two Duo’s on one chip. Now that’s fast! Two models will be available later this month, one from Dell and the other from Gateway, starting at 4000 smackers.
Why use gas?
Why were homes ever created with gas appliances? I hate gas. Last night our heater’s pilot light went out at 2am after Chase had been up and down. I had to go downstairs in the freezing cold and re-light the stupid thing that keeps going out. It’s SO stupid why not have an electric thing that lights everytime it needs to like a spark plug. Sheesh STUPID!
