I had to wait many hours for @#@!^$% calipers to come in for my break job on my Mark!
I waited a way long time at the break shop, walked around town abit, froze my arse off, and got bored. Finally they are finished! I can stop now!

I was up by 7:30, at staples at 8:15. icked up 2 17" LCDs (proview, off brand, but good nonetheless) for $200 each, 2 160gb Hard drives for $40 each and a 512MB Memory Stick for my mom whose birthday was yesterday. After that, i went to the Junkyard with my father, though they didn't have the bonneville I wanted in the yard yet. I ended up getting some emblems and a power antenna for a project ans my dad got a retractable under hood light. Finally I packed my crap up, Drove to the Syracuse Dome and watched my Highschool football team become State Champions for the second time in a row, beating the other team 48-0. Then back to rochester... Fun Day.

In modern Canada, it'* about as significant as a big shopping day (big deals), the day after Christmas. Other than that, there'* nothing else about it.

Apparently, the real meaning of the holiday dates back to long ago in Britain and such. Leftovers from Christmas dinners would be left outside in boxes, and the less fortunate would have something to eat, or at least, that'* what I've heard.

Sounds like a nice tradition, but it seams now days that the dogs and cats etc., would beat the less fortunate to them.

I went to staples at 5:45

Got a G capable wireless router for twenty bucks. Wanted a 16x dvd burner for 40, dude just in front of me got the last one. Then went to order it online at the computer in the back, the lady in front of me got one, and I didn't. It made me angry. I went home.
