New Orleans here,
After evacuating from Katrina, spending a month in a motel room with my family, and coming back to a home without cable or internet, I was in desperate need of some electronic entertainment. It was an emergency! A Federal Emergency! So, to make up for all their screwups, the nice folks at FEMA deposited 4,350 dollars into my bank account. No questions asked. It's the first time the government has ever been nice to me. It's also the first time I've had that kinda money for no good reason. So what to do with all that money? Give it to charity? NAhhhh! :twisted: PSP BABY! Plus Tiger Woods 06, Burnout, Metal Gear, Lumines, and Marvel Nemesis. Also, I got a nice Logitech case to keep it safe while I play it at work! Now I just need to wait for the XBOX360 and PS3! Thanks Taxpayers! Seriously though. This city is in a bad way. All my friends moved out of town when their houses and jobs were trashed. They used the money to relocate and pay for apartments. Me, I got lucky. I still have a job and a home. And now a Freakin PSP!!! |

Thanks man. It's sorta depressing around here right now. Trash everywhere. No stores open because there are no employees. They're paying folks 10$ an hour to flip burgers down here. That's how desperate they are. And life is hard without High Speed Internet or Cable TV. My PS2, PSP, and DVD player are keepin me happy though.
I felt kinda guilty using goverment relief money to buy an expensive toy. But then I saw someone using Red Cross money to buy an HDTV at Best Buy. And I thought, what would G. W. Bush do? So I blew some taxpayer money on something I didn't need! Anyway, glad I could finally join the PSP club. Been wanting one since I first saw a picture of it. Dead sexy machine. Can't wait for some decent RPGs though... Popolocrois and Legend of Heroes look pretty good. And GTA:LCS of course. |

If there was a 'jaw dropping smiley' I'd use it right now...
