Hello all,
Sorry for such the long lapse in between posts. Also, sorry for the long gap between podcasts. Apparently Josh Puckett is working like a madman nowadays, and I just got a new job, so life is absolutely ridiculous crazy right now.
But let's forget about all that, and focus on what's been goin on lately.
Well Leopard was just recently released, I tried to install it once, and it gave me an error, so then I got cold feet and decided not to install it because I didn't have a complete system backup, so I didn't wanna take any chances. But I think I'm gonna try it again here in a couple weeks when I go home for Thanksgiving.
Speaking of which, we are going to be continuing tradition with the annual campout at Best Buy, for Black Friday deals. I started this tradition in 2003, and it's been going strong ever since, and the group has gotten bigger every year as well.
The first year it was just me and my dad who went out at 3am and stood in line for about 3 hours and we were about 25th in line.
Just to give you an idea of how it has grown since 2003, last year we got there at 9pm the night before, and we were about 150th in line. I know, ridiculous, right. But the weather was absolutely amazing too, so I think that contributed to the craziness. So in a sense, I hope that the weather is terrible so that it won't be as packed, but then it sucks because your sitting out in the snow and rain for about 9 hours.
But it's all about the experience. Sitting out there with friends, and playing poker, and just talking all night. Your fingers and toes freezing so bad that they feel like they're going to fall off. Just to say that we did it. Not to mention the deals are absolutely amazing. I'm probably not going to get anything major this year. I'll probably get a stack of blank dvd's for free, and maybe some flash drives to resell. But thats about it. Of course, once I get in the store you just grab everything in sight. I dont know what comes over me, but its just like the excitement of the moment and all of the sudden I just fill me arms with stuff. Its crazy. Then when I'm standing in the checkout line I realize what I have and start getting rid of it. lol. Its so much fun.
So, I say all that to say this, if you wanna come out and join us for the campout at Best Buy, feel free. I'm not sure what time we'll be getting there, but probably sometime early, like I said, last year we got there at 9pm the night before. So probably somewhere around there. But here's the thing, if you don't get there when we get there then we can't let you in line with us. You'll have to get to the back of the line.
But if you wanna go, just email me jsquaredpodcast@gmail.com or give me a call at my Grand Central number by hitting the Call Me button you see to the right of this post, and leave a voicemail. Put that "Call Me" button to good use. And we'll be happy to have you come out and have a good time with us.
O yeah and if we don't put out a new episode before Thanksgiving, then we are definitely going to put out a special edition Thanksgiving episode of the JSquared Podcast. So look forward to that.
I hope to talk to you all before Thanksgiving.
Peace,
Josh Burns
