I had a bad feeling about those MX buttons from the get go. There is nothing wrong with Sanwa/Seimitsu switches. MX are great for keyboards, but they seem VERY flimsy for Arcade buttons. Sad to hear that though

I live about ten minutes from there!
Lion King 1-3 Blu Ray Wooden Box. Who doesn'T love the Lion King
Loving the first season of the West Wing already
And I love my new Nexus 7. Fits perfectly
It's made of WOOD? Holy cow. I have the U.S. special edition and it was so cheaply made, I was disappointed. I am a huge Lion King fan so I've bought every release that's come out here. Can you take another picture of it once you take the shrink wrap and stuff off? I'd love to see it!
Swapped the Mari frames out for the Eva Unit 01 version as they fit the style I prefer better:
A couple early Christmas gifts:
I love those glasses! I needs me a pair.

Got this badass iphone case and it randomly says metal gear on it:
I think the first time I had that fucker dig into my leg in my pocket I'd take it out back and shoot it. Looks cool though.
Actually it's nothing special about it, well except it's made out of wood. Just the three movies in the box, nothing else.
But then my Sonos Play:5 + Bridge arrived yesterday. This thing is a beast and with Spotify there is absolutely no need for a seperate stereo anymore. Neighbors look out!
A few pickups!

As a 32GB iPhone 5 user for >1 month now, it's battery isn't really good either. *sigh* I swear the next big breakthrough must be something battery related because these devices are getting more powerful and more power hungry. I run my iPhone 5 on 3G (no LTE yet in Croatia) with modest usage (no music or video) and it regularly drops to ~30% near the end of the day (being 100% at around 7am when I start using it).

That's better than mine because mine would be at 10%-dead at 3pm without even using it much.

My Samsung galaxy S2 is the worst piece of shit for battery ever. I have to put my phone on charge when I get home from work at 7. The battery is practically dead by then. I can't wait to get rid of this and move on to the Sony Xperia brand

cheap PSP games:
3DS stuff:
- Professor Layton and the Miracle Mask

and this is what happen when playing Reach legendary solo for too long:

New box tagline -"Halo is so awesome it makes your pad explode!"and this is what happen when playing Reach legendary solo for too long:
And this is why I love my LG Cosmos. My battery lasts for two weeks and then takes a half hour to charge.
Also, physical keyboard is the best.

I bought my Play:5 + Bridge a few months back when they had a deal where you got the bridge for free. I absolutely love it.
December has been a busy month. I had a meeting with the Microsoft's Product Manager at the Microsoft HQ and it was an amazing experience, after some talk I ended up getting this since I told her my 7 year old nephew is a Lego fan. She had this extra copy so it was a kind offer from her.
A couple that are friends with me and the lady went to France last week. Since they know I'm a Coffee lover they got me this souvenir:
My lady Birthday is tomorrow and I had to pick up some things, I tried to be creative and search for as many stores as I could. I admit I loved shopping for this since the (female) Staff is always amazing when I go to these shops:
I hope the Shop's names can give you some idea of the stuff inside, because I'm not going to post them all in here.

Same here. I think my bathroom is going to get a Play:3 in the near future!

Early Xmas gift from my awesome brother in law.
Needless to say, I was jaw agaped when I opened the wrapping.
I have yet to decide when to drink it, no occasion seems fitting

I brought some back from Belgium in 2011. Cracked 'em open for the birth of my daughter earlier this year.

Yea dude, a child birth would be a good reason...the Lady n I are one.
I'm just stoked because this is the limited U.S. release. Will find a reason, I'm sure of it
What's it taste like? If you can recall...I know there's no bitterness

It tastes like Rochefort 10 and St. Bernadus Abt 12, actually. Dark, roasty, and rich with some raisin and chocolate going on.
Nice work, Sir, impeccable taste!

Looking forward to it. Thanks!
I know if you're going back, you'll be knee deep in it Boss
It is actually hard to get reservations to visit. Tough to coordinate...you need a good chunk of time and I'm always in and out of Belgium in a few days.
One day! I'll definitely seek out the US release...read about that. Also, unrelated, but my biggest "discovery" belgian beer most recently was Rodenbach. So amazing. I found out they sell it in four-packs here in the states. Nice and pickley.

Damn that's nice. I don't think I'll ever get to taste one, they're pretty hard to get even in Belgium now :/

Absolutely love the STI's, I'm more of a hatch guy but that sedan is beautiful. How does it hold up to your older one so far?
Congrats

I'd love to get one, but they still don't support Airplay out of the box. You need an Airport express for it.
True, but I'd just rather wait till I make it to the monastery, do it proper, rather than buy from the resellers. Or do one of the official releases that they started doing in TX or that anniversary pack last year in Belgium.

Red Robin in Gurnee? Lol I live about twenty minutes from it but my job is about 5 minutes from there! Good to see a nearby gaffer
More cheap pickups!
I haven´t played a Soul Calibur title since 2, and this was being clearanced for $10 so I gave it a shot. Pretty graphics and music, liking it thus far.
Blazing Star for $1? Sure, why not!
Also managed to get some discounted Blurays, about $3-5 a pop.
And some Classical CDs too, since they´re getting scarcier in local shops. Might have to go through Amazon from now on.
