If i opened a bookstore, i'd fill it with all the books I liked, sure wouldn't be much selection.

On a 'nother note, i've come to despair. I've had my heart set on a Cloud with Hardy Daytona figure, but decided that one i painted myself would be cheaper for materials, plus it would use up the model building skills i've been building. Someone on eBay is selling an original model kit 13 years old, but he won't ship to Australia. Why??????????????????? IM MAD!

hmm.. The seller might've been once beaten up by a kangaroo. :e_wink:

Yeah, that's it!
A kangaroo might've beat up the seller some time ago.
And now that person is prejudiced to ever send anything to Australia? :e_tongue:

Seriously, I do find that strange though.

I'd believe that. Kangaroo's are scary. They DO kill people. I don't trust them with their beady eyes and the way they hang in packs.

Alot of people just don't ship overseas. They'd sell the item, so i don't know why they couldn't be bothered.

Wooo..! Go me!
I finally have my replacment PS2 laser ordered. At the same time, I ordered up a PS3 laser to fix my nephew's system. I'm repairing them both myself to save us money and to just learn how to do it.
I'm confident this'll work. :ehail: No sweat!
:e_wink:

Let us know if ps 2 laser replacement is an easy job my aunties be asking me if I fix my cousins ps2

My PS2 laser replacement mission was a complete success! It's now working as good as the day I bought it. It's a relatively easy repair and supposedly, the replacement laser is better quality than the original.

I'll post details in my PS2 thread in "Games" in the near future.


Also, I broke down and decided to buy a new LCD HP monitor to replace my old CRT. The price was right and couldn't resist.
... I have... so much room on my comp desk now..!  :e_shocked: The hell am I going to do with all this newfound space?? Omg.. :il_hahaha:

I wish I had a PS2. ._.

Well, technically I do, but it turned out to be broken when I got it, and a look on the internet tells me the motherboard's probably fried, so I'd be better off getting a new one.

Too bad the only work I can do right now is freelancing, and it seems with the freelancing site I'm working from no one will hire you to even change a light bulb without at least 4 years professional experience in changing light bulbs.
All these college professors teaching classes about Shakespeare, who was the 16th-century equivalent of a director of summer-blockbusters, makes me wonder if 500 years from now we'll have college courses on the subtle nuances of Michael Bay movies.

Give me the symptoms your PS2 is suffering from. I'm curious.
Hope you didn't pay too much for it.

Getting your foot in the door can be difficult. But sometimes it can depend a lot on who you know and if you can get good references to back you up.

Wish I had a decent laptop that could play gta 4, assassins creed 2 and the new prince of persia game, lack of funds though at the moment.

Well, after selling off a bunch of old textbooks (seriously, I ended up with about 33 textbooks for 2 years worth of classes, many of which I never used, and some of which are even still in their shrink wrap,) I think I might finally have enough money to get a replacement PS2 and some games.

Persona 4, here I come! =D
