A HUGE thanks to my friend Heather for donating to me EVERY SINGLE ISSUE of Nintendo Power ever printed. Her grandma used to subscribe to the magazine, but decided that she was done with videogames and was going to throw them all away. Thankfully Heather thought I might want them, and now I have several huge stacks of Nintendo Power sitting on my desk. And a couple of players guides and Gamepro's as well. And all for free!! It's awesome to look back at all the old games on the NES and SNES and see what was said about them. It's an incredible archive to have.

Though I don't really like Star Trek (yes, shocking I know) if I had the money it would still be pretty cool to buy Captain Kirk's chair. Anyone happen to have $80,000 they're willing to donate for a good cause?

I also secured a summer job until school starts in late August. I'll be working for my dad's office to help out the staff there, which includes stuff like looking up quotes, copying stuff, filling out order sheets, and just whatever else is needed. It's an engineering office that sells valves, fluid and gas controllers, and other stuff like that to various manufacutring plants. Should keep me busy to say the least. The pay is good as well. Only downside is that I can't stay up till 4 in the morning anymore. I work from 8 am to 5 in the afternoon, 5 days a week, just like any regular office job. Hopefully when I graduate from college I can get some kind of work that I can plan my own hours, but until then 8-5 it is.
