I think this will be my birthday gift to myself. Just have to try to wait six weeks. :)

I won a little bit with the Powerball. Trying not to build myself an office setup. I'm currently looking at an iMac 27 maxed out with a custom built Xeon desktop with dual 27" monitors. My current setup works just fine, but still........

A little bit = $1 mil...? :D:D

I wouldn't be stopping myself if that was the case. I got 4 matching and powerball. Came to 9grand after taxes. But I still have debt and bills to pay.

Damn...! That's in the mid 5-digit region in my currency... If I were to match 5 out of 6 of my local lotto balls I can't even get close to mid 4-digit region of your currency...

I hope you win someday though. I usually don't play lotto or gamble. It paid off this time. Won't be doing it again anytime soon though.

I will probably purchase during 4 quarter, but for now I am just trying to be patient.

Pentel Twist-Erase III. These were always my favorites growing up, and now that've lost my last mechanical pencil, I'm trying to avoid buying a few and spending more on shipping than the pencils themselves. I'll be avoiding the ones that accept 0.7mm lead, not 0.5.

I started thinking about this recently after coming across a picture of it again, but I would really love an old iPhone 4S. It was the first iPhone that made me want iPhone, and it still looks nice.

This is funny stuff as I don't need one but with the dang release of the new DJI Inspire Pro Black Edition well I'm definitely **TRYING** not to buy that. Now as for is it "needed" ? not at all but dang it we ALLLLL need things even when we know we don't need it. LOL!

I tried these out at the local Bose store, and they feel great. I'm in the market for a pair of in-ear headphones but I already own the Bose QC25. We will see...

I too was looking at some Bose earbuds not too long however I don't think I recall the ones I looked at on Bose's website looking like the ones in this pic unless their offering them in different colors now. I'm a big Bose fan and used to own a few of their Acoustic Wave music systems. Till this day for some reason it seems like the only system that is a stand alone unit that plays things with a surround sound feel to it.

When I first heard the original Bose wave system play it was in a classroom and all I remember was how the room felt full of sound but what was different about the Bose from other systems I heard was that you could not pin point exactly where the speakers or system was located in the room given that the sound filled the entire room. When hearing it I couldn't find where it was coming from and when I did locate where it was (turned out it was at the back of the classroom) I remember saying to myself Ahhhh this little thing here putting out such big beautiful sound.

Sorry I'm almost sounding like those old Bose infomercials that used to be on TV but its truly the way I felt when I first encountered a Bose wave system for the first time. This being said I'd love to hear what their earbuds sound like.
