Leegeta rocks, layoffs, and I bought a car

[Biomechanoid]

Got the games Leegeta sent me for my Dreamcast. I'll be useless for months now. They range from ultra-rad to bitchin' and some are just fucking awesome.

They canned at least 6 people that I know of here today, rumored to have been around 15 - biggest in company history. They hadn't had any in over a decade until the first few last year. Some really nervous folks, and I was surely one of them. So I went out and bought a car.

Oh, about the car. Yeah, I do that every other week or so, just buy a car for the hell of it. [img]eek.gif[/img] Right. We're so close to the edge of bankruptcy that it's not even funny, so what do we do? Take out another loan, of course. Had to. The Mighty Tempo has been in dry dock for over four weeks and it's time to put her ashore for good. Can't get by on just one set of wheels, and since we're borrowing anyway, we moved up to a wagon. Ooooooh. I'm so low class. Anyway, I did get a really good price on a car that had better last another decade - 97 Sub Legacy L wagon, AWD. Carfax says she's tip-top, average mileage and fair gas consumption. Plus, now Mrs. Nostromo and I will have more room for ...things, and we won't have to worry about getting stuck in cornfields. So, yeah, it could be four years before I buy another action figure. [img]frown.gif[/img]

With the raise on the prices of gas, you better get a nice bike instead dude.....

Well, since you got new games, you probably won't be driving too much, so it'll probably last twenty years !

[Biomechanoid]

No kidding, sculpey. Just wait until I catch up with the current consoles!

Andy, you're too late. We're planning a trip to Seattle to get a break, catch some rays. [img]graemlins/sure.gif[/img] Stupid El Nino, or whatever they're calling it this year.

They've already sold out of mopeds around here...
