If you haven't entered our contest yet, we're giving away five Xbox 360 (NTSC) copies of
Borderlands! If, for some reason, you have not picked it up yet,

Once again, our plan to watch some TV was foiled. Our neighbor came over to chitchat and left three hours later. We hadn't even had dinner at that point, so there no more time to be couch potatoes.
