Monitor, anyway. I was IMing with Fozzik today and he let me know about the deal on Dell's 24" widescreen flat panels. So I thought to myself, hmmmm, am I feeling irresponsible? And it turned out I was. :)

It takes a high irresponsibility factor to buy the thing, but once you take it out of the box and use explicatives to express how huge it is, you'll have no regrets. ;-)

I'm feeling exceptionally irresponsible.

What the heck kind of IT guy is that? Seriously. When I worked at a software company one summer in school, the IT guy played Tribes and Baldur's Gate all day. That's how it's supposed to work.

Well i am the production manager at a title insurance company, so we have very strict rules here. It sucks, but i can understand their viewpoint. But sometimes, you need to just relax take a hour or 3 to play your favorite MMO, but, i never done anything in under 3 hrs while playing a MMO. You know how it is, i am only logging in to check one thing, then next thing you know its 3 hrs later... =)

Yep, Mack, no kidding. I recently acquired Guild Wars (best thing about it is no server fees :) ) just to fool around with. It is an awesome game for someone who has time issues regarding grouping or raiding. Artwork is spectacular and the design and concept are quite unique - PvP only if you want, but even the little bit I tried was fun. So, 10 minutes immediately leaps to an hour, and one hour is only noticeable when, in fact, it is two or three hours later. Really a bad thing for me to have gotten involved in, since I have so little time for my workload as it is. Bad Raya, bad bad bad Raya! :p
