New Mobo/CPU: Well, the stuff should get here tomorrow...WOOT!  I'll be busy so I probably won't think to post any updates for a bit. In yet another univers laughing at me moment, I think I tossed out the old hacked up radiator I used to have.  It was a 2.5X6X7 inch part from an air conditioner...sure it had open pipes all along one side, but I could have figured out something to reconnect everything.  *sigh* it was a great idea at the time too.  It has been YEARS since I used water cooling.  I didn't think I'd be getting another CPU for a while.  Processors are FINALLY using less power.  I didn't have a pump.  THEN...intel slashed prices MORE than in half and I found a fucking 12volt pump...12 VOLTS FOR CRYING OUT LOUD...something you can get INSIDE the computer easily. Oh well, if I decide to go that way I'll probably just go buy another AC heat exchanger for $10 from a salvage yard...who knows...maybe I can even salvage some of those little U-tubes that cap the ends...it'd help a lot.

Another thing I have to consider is that the PSU just might not be able to handle a 200 watt processor along with all that other stuff.  Was also thinking I might need to stick another in the case.  Actually I was kind of thinking about a unified PSU/cooling unit. Who knows.  For now, assuming all goes well, I'll just settle for the CPU running at 3-3.5ghz (which reviews seem to indicate is reasonable...especially given the fact that I keep the apartment really cool)

Philosophy: Ugh, sick of morons.  Had some idiot actually debate with me that the fact that we were having the debate means that SOMETHING, not necessarily anything like anything we've ever perceived, but SOMETHING exists.  He also challenged me to differentiate between an UNKNOWN thing and NO THING AT ALL exists...MORONS!  Lots of worthless tripe in that debate "A thing cannot serve as proof of its own existence"...and I'll admit, when going into VERY specific details, I can't be sure what I'm perceiving right now as my computer REALLY exists...but DAMN IT, SOMETHING is vague enough to cover all bases.  Oh well, like I said...moron.

Jogging:  Been doing more of it.  I usually walk/jog 5 days a week, usually shooting for a total of about 40 miles.  *ugh* and of course I start as early as possible to avoid the heat.  Lately I've been leaving the house between 5:30 and 6:00 am :\  Usually I go around 7 miles.  Once a week I manage to do 10miles in a day...but no matter how far I go it's just a big, overflowing basket of not fun.  I am moving a bit faster and jogging without stops now though. Of course, there's some chick I see jogging every morning that runs faster than me, farther than me and doesn't seem to slow down until she hits home.  Sheesh, 10 miles of running...granted, she's younger than me.
