Must Resist

This is bad. Was online looking for more good deals on Friday after picking up a set of Logitech x-230 for $20 (reg. $80), and came across a few things that I realized I "needed", but all of them are more "wanted". Saw this nice Swiss Gear Leather Laptop case, reg $130 down to $80, might pick one up over summer for university if the price goes down any lower. Also saw a Samsonite Leather Laptop case, pretty close to the Swiss Gear one, and its going for $80 down from $140, was tempted to get it then but had to resist. Then realized I probably need a wireless router soon, and popped over to bestbuy.ca and found an ok deal on both d-link and linksys wireless-G router. Waiting for price drop in summer again. Also figured I should get an USB-Hub, since I'm unplugging and plugging in all the time, probably not good for the computer, so theres another thing I "need". List goes on, must resist temptation to spend.

Sports Cooler Talk:
How about the As offence coming alive against the Jays. Road trip haven't been too good to the Jays yet, losing 4 of 6. Hopefully they'll do better against the Cubbies the next 3 games...Game 6 was dominated by the defending champs. Without Wade, it seems the Heats is just not as good of a team. I'm not saying Wade is a legitimate superstar yet; he is on his way there, but playing with Shaq helps alot. Will be interesting to see how the Heats respond tomorrow night at home with Wade still listed under game-time-decision...With Michael Bishop's return to the boatman, Argos got almost their entire Grey-Cup winning team back from last year. Hoping for another strong year from them, Damon Allen will need to play like he's young again, but this should be an exciting year coming off a championship year...NHL and NHLPA meeting alot again, aren't they sick of each other yet? Seems like they're still at the stage for determining the propery way to crunch the numbers. Long way to go until a deal can be struck, but at this pace, hopefully we'll see Sidney Crosby in an NHL uniform in the not-too-distant future...Looking forward to June 13-15, when the big red birds (St. Louis Cardinals) will be in town, going to be heading down for a couple of games, should be good ones.
