| "Hi, may name is Rich, and I have a problem.......I spend too much money at Newegg" Rich is definately addicted to newegg as well as quit a few of the rest of us. I just recommended it to a friend looking for a upgrade. |

| They are usually held at the homeless shelter since thats where you end up once the wife sees the newegg bill. |

Thats what she wants you to think. She wants you to go have fun and then when you let your guard down and really start to believe her, she yanks back on the leash that is around our necks and says "Don't think so" while leaving us standing there wondering, what the hell?

| All computer upgrades are explained to the little mrs. as "required" in order to continue running the computer. Otherwise it just won't work. I use terms such as; diometric bioptric switch, electro-servo L.E.D., and my favorite catch-all, electro-magnetic field generating processor to get her attention about just how serious it can be if we don't upgrade very soon. She might be catching on though, she pointed to the HDD activity light the other day asking why it blinked the way it did. I told her it was the wear-out warning light and instead of nodding her head in agreement, she gave me one of those "looks".
