The gaming headset we purchased the other day turns out to be a bust. It was working fine for the tournament on Wednesday (we took 2nd place), but this morning, it didn't want to work anymore. I've been testing all sorts of different settings, but it didn't resolve anything. Back to the store it goes, and maybe we'll pick up something else.
Anyhow, the weekend is upon us, and while there are no movies that we want to see — Bounty Hunter doesn't count — I'm sure we'll keep ourselves busy with the DVR, Netflix, and some running now that the weather is much better.
