It was probably one of the worst $209 investments I've ever made. I find it is extremely hard to play video games with a giant dick in your ass.

Where government has gone beyond its limits is in deciding to protect us from ourselves. Man is not free unless government is limited. The most terrifying words in the English language are: I'm from the government and I'm here to help. The problem is not that people are taxed too little, the problem is that government spends too much. We should measure welfare's success by how many people leave welfare, not by how many are added.

I knew someone would get me... but I think I am going to keep the XFX card for now and see how it works out... the $20 off of the Sapphire card is also no longer available, which means the prices are almost exactly the same now. _________________
