I here there's some pretty good skateparks in Toronto. But if you don't skate, that's not much help.

Also, Fallout 3. Yes or No.

TO. Well there is lots to do in TO. Maybe see what is going on at the old sky dome? (roger center). Check out the bars. There can be battle of the bands and other great night life like on Young Street.

Ask the folks at the hotel. I am not talking about the guys on the front counter. Go the the restaurant and talk with the DISH WASHERS. Trust me. If anyone knows where to go after a crappy day of work for some good olde fashioned Canadian Asskicking fun it is the Dish Washers. + they will tell it to your straight.

There is dinner in the tower or just go to the salvation army and get some "rags". Then walk down town and go to the soup kitchens. Yes soup kitchens. Most of the time the head cooks will be from 5 star restaurants. I am SERIOUS. The homeless in TO eat Better than I do where I live. Food is KILLER and Free. You can even manage to get lunch twice if you are well planned. How so? Find out what each soup kitchen is serving. How? CALL THEM. Then figure out what you want and go to the first place. Then RUN to the second place and you can get everything you want.

Believe it or not there is a Book written by a self proclaimed Millionare who his wife not knowing would head out to work in a suit and change to rags and beg on Young Street during the 80's. He then put his suit back on after 8 hours work and then drove home. After 8 short years he had claimed over 1 million dollars on his tax form.

His begging days ended when his mother in-law saw him begging and told his wife.

Dunno have never been to either of them

On another note, gf comes to town today for the school year.


EDIT: So does anyone notice that Victor Zakhaev (CoD4) looks like Sasha (Vladimir Lvovich Mashkov) from Behind Enemy Lines?

Nah man, that's Niko from GTA4.

I downloaded that new starwars game demo last night. It was pretty good, to be able to use the force to lift Tie-figter and throw it back at the enemy is just awesome.

The Force Unleashed does look pretty epic.

I saw Before Enemy Lines 2 nights ago and then happened to watch the intro to CoD4 yesterday and noticed it... Pretty cool imo.

Ya it does. Throwing Tie Fighters at stormtroopers=epicwin.

The demo was really short though. I spent like 25 min downloading it (just under a gig in size) and it only has about 15 mins of game play. lol

I'll get it when it comes out.

Yeah, I'd even preorder that.

I thought about getting the preorder for Fallout 3, but that was mostly since it had a Nuka Cola bottle opener in it.

Lol.

Wow im such a geek. Im currently at a rest area somewhere on I-90 in Pennsylvannia as I type this. At least they have free internet and ive been keeping myself busy by watching 28 Weeks Later. I think I freaked some people near me, when I booted up my laptop since I changed the ordinary microsoft loading screen to a CIA one

No joke, I wanna know how to do that too because that sounds just freaking awesome! I would love to do that in a really crowded place. That would be lots of lols.

I don't normally pre-order games, though I did pre-order Halo 3 and now Gears of War 2. I did preorder Factions and NF too come to think of it...

Well I am pretty much packed up. Just need to load up the car after I get home from my gf's tonight. Then off to school tomorrow, singles room! Yay!

I know the ones of which you speak, Slayer. Some of them seem a little buggy to me, but I need to check into them more.

Would be cool to see what image he used as the splash screen too.

2. Download the skin

3. Install the skin by going into program files and dropping it into the skins folder of BootSkins

Bad night last night. Woke up with sinus all stuffed up. Couldn't breathe. Started coughing so hard I think I pulled something in my back.
