went deal hunting with ungsunghero today. had lunch @ TGI Fridays (good stuff! + always gotta get strawberry lemonade). then we headed over to CompUSA and picked up on the Fuji CD-R deal. 3x30pks for $6 after rebate! great price on Taiyo Yuden. we were also hoping staples was carrying lite-on rebadged cendyne burners, but unfortunately, they only had other rebadges. went back to ungsunghero's place and watched him trip and fall, i mean play tony hawk 4. ;p

i finally gave up on waiting for Toriyama World to continue fansubbing Naruto. waiting almost 2 months finally did it and i watched 6 episodes worth ones translated by anime-one/anbu. good stuff. think my sister was getting annoyed when i kept asking her who was going to win. well, it's more like i predict something, and she confirms it or not.

darn, new toy isn't here yet. common! package from Las Vegas, NV -> Monterey Park, CA shouldn't take over 2days.

working out on a deal with someone on AT. $60 + shipping for nokia 8290 w/ sim card. let's see how it turns out.

thanks fuzzy for donating this audio clip: iraq frogs. some comedians bashing on the french again. hehe. (^_^x)

HAPPY BDAY DAD!!!

welp, i suspened my cellfone account today with little hope of finding it again. decided i'd just get a sim card, reactivate the line, and wait untill a good used fone deal comes along. so yah, u'll probably be only able to reach me online or @ my home fone for some time.

well, lemme first tell u wat happened on sunday @ office depot (the day i lost my cellfone). i went there to do a price match on a memorex 128MB compact flash. fry's/outpost had it for $23 while office depot had it for $50 with a $20 rebate. i brought a printed ad to office depot believing this would be a easy price match, since office depot does gaurantee to match competitor's price. the clerk at first told me that he couldn't price match because office depot had a rebate. i reminded him that it was a vendor rebate and not a office depot rebate so it'd be valid @ fry's too. he insisted that he couldn't price match because fry's ad doesn't show the rebate on it. i replied that it was office depot's policy to price match competitor's prices. he then questioned if i used any coupon, in which i replied no. finally he said that he had received a corporate memo that noted that they will not price match fry's on this product. i stood there for a few moments and then i asked, but it's in your policy to price match... he responded that all he could do for me was cancel my order and suggested that i go to fry's instead. pretty pissed at this point, i went home and filed a complaint to office depot corporate. this morning, i received a call from the manager of that office depot, apologizing for his employee's action. he said he was willing to do the pricematch for me now and would include a $10 gift card for my trouble. i was happy to accept the offer, but right after i hung up, i realized that the $20 rebate was no longer valid. i called back the manager and told him that i appreciated his sincerity, but i had to decline his offer because the rebate was no longer valid. he thought for a moment and replied that he was willing to discount the rebate amount for me if i still wanted the item. i agreed immediately while he asked how much the rebate was. i told him it was $20. so that makes it um.... $3? i said yes. he still tells me to come on over. i go this afternoon and he tells his clerk to get me the item and over write the price to $3. the clerk looked at him as if the manager was crazy. i couldn't blame him. $3 for a memorex 128MB compact flash is a great deal. after i paid, i thanked the manager and walked out with the memorex compact flash 128MB for $3.25 out the door. my luck may be finally changing!

it's been pretty frustrating for the past 2 days. apparently my cell fone has indeed been stolen. the thief has infact made some fone calls, i've been trying to track him/her down with little success.

• the woman @ 32361024xx claims that she was at a party and she doesn't really remember who called her. i gave her a call back and asked her to try to remember (almost to the point of begging) and she said she'd call me back after she checked her call history. she never did call back. 30mins later i gave her a call again and she says my # does show up in her history, however she recalls that she lent out her fone to friends and doesnt recall everyone that used it. she ends the call stating, "it's pretty obvious your fone has been stolen. just cancel your account." no duh, ms. obvious. pretty obvious she's trying to cover up for her friend.
• the woman @ 62643737xx has been unreachable so far, but her voicemail says her name is Kimmy.
• the guy @ 32326927xx claims he was not home during that time. i asked if anyone else could've been there and he claims he lives alone. i asked if he had an answering machine. he says no. one of those must be a lie cause tmobile doesn't count time unless i get a connection.

tmobile themselves haven't been pretty helpful either:

a new toy should be on it's way! i'll fill u in when i get it.

ahhhhhh! i lost my cellfone. i'm pretty sure i left it @ Office Depot. going to call them up tomorrow morning.

u remember those caps with the safety button (ie. snapple's bottle). i was playing with it and i managed to get the cap to stop popping back up and i was wondering... now what? so these popup caps aren't fail-proof, then again will someone really fall for a snapple bottle that's been removed of the plastic holder and half empty?

while driving on the freeway today, i saw this really kewl rig. u know how they have those metal grills in front of their engine? well, this one drew in white sharp teeth! i was like awesome! unfortunately i was driving and was unable to take a picture of it.

got a new movie for you! Batman - Dead End. enjoy!
