Easter basket stuff and five big balls for the trampoline because my daughter likes jumping with them.

The PR's Easter presents came to about $45.  Wonder how much the Tsar of Russia used to spend on the Faberge Eggs.  We have a few in the New Orleans Museum of Art.  Exquisite things.

:agreed:

My guess is he spent a lot more than we spent.  I got most of the easter basket stuff at the dollar store, but the big balls were from Target and stuffed bunny came from somewhere else.

$20 for Alvin and the Chipmunks, Chipwrecked
$12 for Five Minute Disney Princess Stories
$15 for a Stuffed Sponge Square Pants character.

Richard's purchase came to mind when I saw this article today.

BTW, doesn't Brook Robinson look a little like Peyton Manning?
I think brooks robinson was the best 3rd baseman in baseball history, I have this autograph of his.
No ball got by him, he sucked it right up into his glove. also my ichiro rookie came :blonde:

A new light fixture for the hallway to replace the one that broke

And just how did it get broken, young man?  I told you time and time again, not to play in the house.

F phono to M 3.5mm cable, 20cm.

Gonna just put it into the linein on my PC, run my PS3 through that, rather than constantly swap the phonos on the back of my speakers. I'm running it through one of my monitors with an HDMI <-> DVI-I cable, hence no sound. Rather like that I can split the output like that, though - digital video, analogue audio. As far as I'm aware, it's the only console that will let you do that.

The cable has two female RCA/Phono (pictured are two male)



and the other end is a male 3.5mm jack (third along).



I only have one set of speakers that have the phono inputs on the rear; I'm currently having to switch the inputs between my PS3 component cables and the audio component from my PC. However, once I have this adaptor, I can run the audio component from the PS3 through the PC, thereby eliminating the need to switch cables.
The video is coming out of the HDMI port on the PS3 and into the secondary input on my monitor - which is DVI. Both are digital interfaces (High Definition Media Interconnect, and Digital Video Interconnect - HDMI is based off DVI, they are electronically compatible). However, as I have no integrated speakers on my monitor, I have to take the audio out the old analogue port and use component for it. Hence, Digital video, Analogue audio. Most of the time you have all digital or all analogue.

I bought a mobile phone over the internet. It is a Samsung Galaxy S II. I also bought two covers (that was just the deal, I don't know if I will actually use them both), dark purple and blue. Only thing is, now I have to wait. That is what I don't like about buying over the internet.

The Witcher 2.
Existence actually has two broad meanings despite its apparent meaningless. The constant reconciliation of all its parts, and the conservation of any closed system as a whole.

Morality can be extrapolated from these meanings to make these two commandments of godless morality: 1). Be in harmony with one another and 2). Care for the environment.
