I've been seeing those Yahoo ads lately. I don't like them. They don't sell Yahoo to me. But they've got one with Chali 2na of the Jurassic 5. So I dig it. I still don't have much use for Yahoo. But I dig the J5.

Had an interview with IKEA on Friday. Ten people there. I was the only one who wasn't a high school senior. But it was the most interesting interview. They gave us an object from the store and made us do a short presentation on it. That was so high school. But it was cool. IKEA has style. Some other dudes, Survival Insurance, made me take a spelling test, a math test and an "IQ test". It was like a bad fourth grade substitute teacher. We don't have a lesson plan. We don't have a hiring process. But we have these worksheets instead. But I've got another interview or two. I need to follow up with a few people on Monday. Now Playing: Beat StarFox Adventures. Just because I was close to the end. It wasn't an enjoyable game. "Fox, you need to run over here and collect things! Then we'll give you the item you need to save our planet so you can go to the next area and collect more things". And it's minigames all involved running from point to point. You get one cutscene showing you where the next point is. So if you look away at the wrong moment, or put the game down for a month, you'd better hope that Mysterious Shell #4 (out of 7) glows or something. Cause if it doesn't, you're not gonna find it. I like good minigames. Sly Cooper rocked. But, I mean, I beat this game because I was more than halfway through and I wanted to get it over with. So now I'm back to Rayman, Final Fantasy VII, and Magic: The Gathering. Mainly Rayman, because I need games that I can play for 15 minutes at a time. MtG has battles that can really drag out and dungeons that you can't save in. But since this laptop doesn't have CD drive, I can't install too many other games on it. I've got another laptop I can use. I just haven't actually transferred my things over yet. I need to do that soon. Makes me wish I had a W2k network with a distributed file system, but that's for another day.
