so yesterday monday a UPS van pulls up and says he's here for 2 packages from me. umm ok... i could guess its for the dell ones but where the hell is the warning. he said he'll come back tomorrow to get them. before he left i checked out the tags he was to put on them. the company listed as the receiver was like micro system solutions or something nothing about dell or anything. well its great that they are doing all this but it could be a bit smoother of a transaction if they tried.


on another note i also got one of my new moousepads its a cool copper color and its slipppppppery! made which a teflon coating this pad is a HUGE improvement over my last mousepad, which was actually a notebook :P if anyone is looking for a good mousepad thats cheap and isn't full of advertisement hype and huge price markups try looking here

they are a company out of Illinios specializing in plastics, rubbers, and syntetic stuff for industrial use. the one i got is a 16x10 gen5 with the 1/8"rubber mat. the shipping is resonable since they use usps priority for the hawaii ppl and they shipped it same day which is nice. so if you are looking for a mousepad that is for performance check them out and don't forget to buy some teflon buttons too.

oh and i'm happy to announce that i found that stupid song i've been looking for for a while now. i htink this search is ranked right up there with the ninja movie for JB. for those that are interested its by Rise Against called Swing Life Away[sample it on itunes]

thats all for now.
