I have a bit of a sore throat, and no OJ to kickstart my immune system. DAMN IT THE STUFF IS USELESS AFTER YOUR ALL THE WAY SICK!

[ein]

I got about 4 hours of sleep last night, from 3 to 7.
At least I feel better rested than when I get 9 or something.

Gargle with a shot of whiskey, proceed to drink it slowly, repeat until your throat is healed.

I'm unable to obtain or stomach alcohol, as I am a minor and a prude.

Grab some chopped ginger and toss it in a small pot (on medium heat) with about enough water to mostly fill a large glass. Once it's gently boiling, take it off the heat and squueze a bunch of lemon juice in. Then add honey until it tastes good. Absolutely terrific for throats, and it's a delightful warm drink.

Then gargle 80 proof mouth wash (though I believe that also has toxins in it, so you probably shouldn't drink it...). The point is to a) numb the nerves in your throat (coffee also helps with this), and b) wash the infected areas with a mild toxin. It's worked for me in the past, in any case.

 Just found out my older sister is going to leave for Las Vegas for work for about a month over the summer. She leaves tomorrow morning.

 Another sibling heads off. Temporarily, but still. She will be missed.

While I was installing my new power supply, I was also going the extra mile and seeing if I could realign/pop out the new video card and make things more streamline. Well, here are the problems:

-It seems that there's much blocking the brace-lock of the PCI-E card slot ranging from the card itself to a motherboard capacitor. Nothing can reach, nor trigger it
-While I was tweaking with it to re-fit things, I accidentally peeled the plugging of the SATA cord that links my larger hard drive to the motherboard. It was pinned under the graphics card, but freed in a rather violent manner. Took me a good 15 minutes with tweezers to get the plug part out.
-There are still some really stubborn wiring that I can't do anything about so tie that in with the graphics card's own stubborness as well as the fact that it also obscures one of the screws for the motherboard, it is essentially hard-wired into the motherboard. The only other method of removal (if I plan on going to a larger case) may be a little rough.

On the bright side however:
-I have managed to realign all the pins in the frayed-ish SATA cable plug (it was just the pins in a rather bent fashion, no case; a good 15-20 minutes were spent straightening them and mimicking the other end), plug it back into it's case, use same tweezers to hard-pin them back into their slots in the casing, and re[plug it in (risky endeavor), it worked. But still, to be safe, I'll have to replace that cable.
  -It works (all files, the entire drive, and everything works; not a dent in the fender), it's just that I shouldn't nudge it (the end cap) by any means next time I poke around the inside of my machine, despite it finally being freed and in a much better position/slot.
      -Fortunately, the part is the cheapest replacement for my machine thus far.

EDIT:
Sneaky Happiness: I feel like MacGuyver with how, and how well I temporarily repaired my SATA cable. I thought I was screwed for sure. And despite my internet connection being screwed as well, a bit of quick thinking after the SATA fix, I fixed my connection as well rather quickly.

Gargle with a shot of whiskey, proceed to drink it slowly, repeat until your throat is healed.

Or just take a swig out of your whiskey flask, and it will instantly heal your sore throat, and any bullet wounds you may have.

No, to do that you need to eat uncooked egg whites.

Hi!

I just wanted to express my horror at hearing what might be an untrained attempt at using a vuvuzela here in the neighborhood. Please, don't let that come true (T_T)
All those corny flags are already bad enough, but at least you can look away... but if they start packing those things (T_T)

HELP!

Shogun is acting up on me, not letting me play it, silly game, it's for your own good

Tried to play Devil May Cry 3 with an XBOX 360 controller but the analog sticks are reversed and there's apparently no way to fix it.  Good job, Ubisoft.

[smigenboger]

Could you use Joystick 2 mouse 3 for it? You assign the commands to the xbox controller, so you could set the axis to be reversed.
