TP in a treeWell, I survived Halloween night. No omelets on the side of my house. And the good news is that I won’t have to buy toilet paper for awhile. Of course, if I’m going to use it all, I’m going to need a bigger ladder.

Linksys Wireless GOK, now I’m a bit pumped. I’m upgrading my home wireless network. Reportedly, I can get 54Mbps with my newly ordered Linksys Wireless-G Broadband Router WRT54GWireless-G.

Normally this puppy sells for around $200, BUT I was able to get it for, get this, only $98.99!Wireless-G Game Adapter

Wireless-G Game AdapterOf course if I’m getting a new router, I need to get the Wireless-G Game AdapterWireless-G Game Adapter to hook into my PS2 so I’m be running at full speed while playing SOCOM II! And the good news for my brother is he can get my old wireless router!

Now I’m looking into a TiVo. I’ll keep you guys updated on what I decide to get there. Or if any of you would like to make a suggestion, please email me!

SOCOM II
iconYes, the Jackhole plays SOCOM: U.S. Navy SealsSOCOM II. However, I CAN’T wait for SOCOM II! Yes I’m a freaking addict.

PS2 Controller
I think I’m even going to get the upgraded wireless Predator Controllericon. For those of you that’d like to play along, I’m either Jackhole or “Bad Soldier” on SOCOM and hope to be the same on SOCOM II!

So I hope all you faithful (and not so faithful) readers of the Ramblings of a Jackhole will grab yourself a copy of SOCOM II (preferably through the links on THIS page) and come join me!

Even a Jackhole Needs Some Green

Star Wars KidOK, I’m going to take a stab at actually trying to break even with this site. However I’ll likely be as successfully at making money on this site as the “Star Wars Kid” will be in getting a date for prom, but even paying for half the expenses would be wonderful. I’m also hoping that this will help spur me to come up with new material.

So, if you like this site, PLEASE check out the sponsors on the top. And if you’d like me to consider sponsoring your site or product, email me!
