So, Gamestop continues to profit through the sinking American economy. I couldn't be happier for them, really. I figure, since they're on to a great business strategy (however much I hate them), that maybe they'll increase beyond their capacities and implode and leave way for a slightly less shady mainstream game retail chain. It's not that the practice of reselling used games with an unnecessarily high markup and no kickback to the developers of the products is illegal or bad or anything (it's read
In a few weeks, I will make a life-changing journey. After 33 years of living in Northern Ireland, and for very good reasons, I am about to become an immigrant.

Finally, after weeks/months of waiting I got an iPhone 3G. You may recall the mix-up I had at the AT&T Wireless store which seemed like it would keep me from ever getting one.
