Supposed to be able to preorder on 7/1 and it ship around 9/1. $400 seems to be the pricepoint, which is way too rich for my blood, but that is one sweet looking set.

Do not under any circumstances waster your money with The Happening, it was flat out terrible. Mark Wahlberg isn't very good in it, but I'll blame M. Night for that one. I don't even want to bother explaining why this movie stunk, because that would require having to think about it more. Awful. And this is coming from someone who didn't hate The Village.

Amazon has Uncharted on sale for $39 today if anyone's interested.

 I had zero issues at my Best Buy getting the Wal-Mart deal matched, and turned right around and used the gift card on MLB '08 and a couple of Blu-Ray's. Also snagged a Blu-Wave IR remote for $10 at Gamestop so I can use the USB IR controller from it with my Harmony.

If anyone is on the fence about the giftcard deal at Wal-Mart, I just got back from Best Buy and can confirm that they are price-matching and giving you a $100 gift card as well.

Not getting the best of reviews, but it's Chuck so I have to check it out.

I played at least twenty games of bowling last night trying to get a Turkey, and just can't do it. Anyone else gone for this achievement yet? I've been able to get two in a row a few times, but every time I go for the third I always leave one pin standing. Everything online says to use the left-most lane and take two steps to the left then throw as straight as possible, but nine times out of ten I just end up with a split. So frustrating! (Loving the game though)

I picked up Mario Kart last night traded in a bunch of old games for Kart and GTA IV.

I HATED Smash Bros after loving it on every other console, so I was a little on edge about Mario Kart, but it's really really good! This is definitely a must have game for the Wii. Sadly it's going to get cast aside around midnight tomorrow.

I've read Bedford Boys and The Longest Winter, so when I heard Alex Kershaw had a new book coming out I had to grab this, it's about the sinking of the submarine Tang and the trials the survivors had to go through afer they were captured. Comes out April 28th for those of you lacking publisher connections  ;D

There's just nothing out on the PS3 that gives me any desire to pick one up. Uncharted looks good, but definitely not even close to inspiring me enough to go out and get one. God of War 3 would be enough for me to buy one, but last I heard it wasn't even coming out this year. SOCOM is another title that could sway me, but not the version that's coming out this summer. I want a real one.

Sadly the new Rambo on Blu Ray is probably my biggest reason to get a PS3 right now, and that's just not reason enough. 360 is still drinking PS3's milkshake.

Still waiting on my rod, but after some rather ugly emails back and forth regarding my Stealth Iron Man I had to return, I finally got shipping confirmation for my droid support. I cannot believe they are shipping something that fit inside a regular envelope via UPS instead of USPS. I hope my UPS driver can carry that package all the way to my door. I'll leave him a water bottle just in case.

I know you all love Sideshow's customer service, but at least with me they are 0 for 2. the debacle that has been created trying to replace a scratched statue has really turned me off of them. Their inability to answer the most simple of questions is really turning into an art form.

Needless to say I'm happy that the Canucks **** the bed. As long as we get the Wings in the first round, I'm happy. We can hold our own with them. Sharks, not so much.

I have a Husky that is predominately indoors, and her last round of shedding forced me to retire my old vacuum and get a new one. I was willing to spend the money on a Dyson if it would take care of my fur problem, but the more user reviews I read about them, the less sure I became. There's a lot of negative reviews on Consumer Reports that made me really leery of dropping 500 bucks on a vacuum. While I was researching Dysons, the Bissell Pet Eraser kept popping up with amazing reviews and a really reasonable price. I ended up getting one of them instead, and have nothing but great things to say about it. It does an fantastic job of picking up fur, and has some really useful attachments. Best $150 I've spent this year.
