Delay for HDTVs and Gaming Part 2
SuperDave \| 9:05 PM on 10.27.2007	7 comments

Sorry guys, I was going to have part 2 by now but life threw me a curve ball. That's how it goes I guess. I got laid off my job of over 8 years Friday. It's the third layoff experience I've been through at that company and one before that but I always made it through. Not this time. It's cool though, I was too stressed at that job anyway, time to move on. I'm getting severance pay through the end of the year and if I find another job soon, I'm paying off my car with it (last payment was going to be in March) and Super Mario Galaxy, here I come!

So anyway, priority is spending time with my girlfriend this weekend, job hunting Monday and then if I have time, part 2.

Is this post awesome? Vote it up!

This blows. Why don't you try for at least a temoprary job selling hdtv's? You know your shit. Seriously you could sell an hdtv to a blind guy.
