So yesterday they didn't turn the water back off. I know they were working through out the night. Today, metal plates are covering the hole with a bunch of barriers around it. I guess they are monitoring it if it happens again.

In other stuff, my bro's MacBook can't boot. It shows the folder with the question mark in it. He did a software update and something happened. BTW, he still is running Tiger on his laptop. Need to find the details from him on what exactly happened. Looks like I will be fixing his laptop over the weekend. Ugh!

• QOTN: What are your weekend plans?

UPDATE: More linkies!

• Top 5 Worst Dressed Videogame Characters (1up)
• GTA4 Coming to Windows? (Gamespy)
• New 3.2Gbps FireWire spc approved, not as fast as USB 3.0

QOTN: Working all day tomorrow, nothing planned for Sunday. Decided I'll be moving back to Tyler TX the end of September. Found a 1 br in a good neighborhood for $550/month.
