Suburban Homeboys - 05-08-2013

 This past week, I did a little investigating into airfare prices, and dug up past emails of what I’ve paid for past flights to compare.  Which left me wondering – why did I fly across the country in May of 2013?  Unable to find the answer in email archives of the time period, I pulled up a few shows from around that time, and determined it was for a wedding.  But – then I got sucked into the conversations happening around the time about Niio and a guy she was interested in – which spreads out over a few episodes.  This is the one where it started.  And then I also got sucked into how much random silly stuff would happen.  We really were on a roll at this period of time.  So check it out – some classic fun times with the crew.

The Amateur Hour 03-11-2007

 This past week, I officially retire my 2nd computer build, which has me going through the archives to put together the story of how this machine came to be, because much of it is lost to time.

Records show I bought the parts from newegg in March of 2007, so I've turned to those shows to review for the story.  Which has led me to this episode, a memorable one.

Due to a series of hardware failures, I ended up turning to my AMD K6-2 computer I had recently re-acquired, and happened to be able to get it to work well enough to broadcast in a pinch.  I go more into that in the show.

I reference looking to put in an RMA for the mobo - I do remember having to RMA that board a lot, so that may be what resolved it, as I did continue to use that mobo and processor for at least another year past this episode.  But, with the amount of RMA's, I guess I decided it was time to shop for new parts.  Which - I do reference noticing that 2 PCI slots was the norm at this point, which was disappointing.

Damon calls in, and we talk old computers.

Vamp calls in - somehow we end up talking about weird porns, and contemplate Gothard's question about what the opposite of a rather unusual circumstance would be.

Good group call with Vamp, Dune, and Damon on the line.
