Good morning, everyone.

I put in an order for a new computer. Can't wait to get that bad boy in. This one won't even handle Farmville anymore, so it's time for some new blood at the desk.

Would you believe me if I said I played it to meet girls? :oops:

That's like saying I'm going to the comic book/gaming store to meet girls. Ain't gonna happen.

I beg to differ.

The local "collectibles" store with sports cards, old toys, and gaming supplies has a habit of hiring extremely attractive girls between 18 and 24.

The daughter of the comic shop guy across the street was also kind of cute, so she would be there on occasion.

Now anything coming out of the girls you meet at these shops, well, let's just say you get used to lonely nights after a while.

Ok, I figured some people would be doing that.

Plus, the less posts, the less people will see it and eventually increase my odds ;)

That's why I didn't put "contest" in the title, some people probably lurk on here looking for contests. I'd rather see members who actually contribute to the site win the box.

I went with the HP Pavilion p6710t. It will apparently take them a week to build though. I wish there was an option to have just the parts shipped so that I could do it, but still get the HP warranty and whatnot :geek: .

I'm considering sending my first card ever in to get graded - it's a 2006 Topps Chrome Red Refractor of Chad Greenway. Now, I'm assuming that since it's encased, it should grade pretty high on corners and edges. Anyone ever subbed an encased card and gotten a crap grade back? This is not taking centering into account.
