We got our Arcade PC up and running again. Apparently the joystick controller’s PS2 encoder board died, but Hanaho was quick to send us a replacement and that did the job! Now everybody’s Super Puzzle Fighting it up again!

I just got word that my new car rolled off the assembly line and should be shipped to California soon. I drive a 99 Camry Solara right now and I’m getting an ’02 Camry SE. Why? Because the lease is up on my Solara and there’s too many things that I don’t like about it to keep it forever. For example, I don’t like-

Having two doors.

They’re too heavy and easy to bang on nearby cars.

Having four cylinders

There are a ton of hills around my house, and when I go up them my motor really revvs up like I am super race car driver man. I just want to be commuter man.

Making people squeeze into the back seat.

There’s plenty of room back there, but having to slide up the front seat so they can make it back there is a pain.

Not having a sunroof or a moonroof.

I like moonroofs, especially when it’s raining! That way I can be like “AHHH!!! It is raining but I am dry! It is a hydro-miracle!!!”

Not having a cargo net in the trunk.

This is stupid, but it comes standard on the new one, so whoopie!

The new car will address all of these issues, and I am hoping it will make my two hours of driving every day a happy event! I even spang for the leather and simulated wood grain interior, so I can maybe pretend that I am driving a Lexus!

Except a few days ago I saw the new Corollas and they are just as nice as the Camrys, but I had already ordered the Camry so oh well.
