On another note, my dad pointed out that my laptop was in this week’s Fry’s ad and
it had another instant rebate on it. So we both went, and my mom came too because
she was the one that had to put it on her credit card because the stupid credit
card companies deny me any other credit than the ridiculous $200 credit limit
“secured card” that I have, which puts a block on $300 in my savings account. Explain
that to me! To think I’ve spent several thousand dollars on that thing and
I still get denied, even though I’m preapproved. And then I get a ding on my credit
report making it even harder to get credit. </rant>. We thought that
Fry’s would give us crap because it was only an “instant rebate” and not the advertised
price, but they gave it to us no hassle, but not the 110% price match. We didn’t
really want to argue so we took it and went shopping. My mom ended up getting
Season 1 of Highlander
and Burglar, which I watched on my
laptop on the way home. I also got a Blue
LED case fan, but I don’t know if I like it yet because the LED won’t turn off
at night (unless it has something to do with that other wire we didn’t know what was
for). I also find amusing that Fry’s was selling gas masks. Good ol’ capitalism.

I also had fun wardriving (if you want to call it that) on the trip. I found 9 networks
available, but only 2 I could successfuly get in to. Not that I expected much though,
because the car was going too fast.
