hotwheels
Reen and I bought a car this weekend. Reen put some lovely pictures up for all to see. I like it and it's way comfy to drive. And just for the record I never liked HotWheels, I was always a Matchbox guy.
I bought some waders for fishing/clamming and general watery merriment. No pictures of those. Sorry.
The Revs came back from 2-0 down, to tie San Jose 2-2 in the season opener this past Saturday. They looked very solid in the 2nd half. Looking forward to opening day at Gillette this weekend.
Speaking of the internet, I came across the phrase '1337 5p33k' for the first time. Thanks to the wonderful resource which is Wikipedia, I was able to learn a little something about leet speak. Really cool from the point of view of seeing language/communication evolve so quickly. The blurb on 'x0r' and the separate entry on 'pwned' were especially interesting. I am glad that I'm not a big enough nerd to know any of this already, but the nerd in me feels like such a n00b.
watch out for the sharks!

It seems I've got you out-nerded in this department. I've sadly been familiar with leet speak for a while now. Probably because I am 1337. You, however, are teh suxx0r!!!1!
Congrats on the new car! We loved our GC. Can't beat German engineering...

I am guessing that your usage of "You, however, are teh suxx0r!!!1!" is deliberately incorrect.
Used in this way, the intentional grammatical error increase the level of irony and separates your statement from less-ironic true leetspeak.
The origins of this variation are unknown.
