Win a GeForce 8800 video card from Massively!

Reminder: win the Ultimate Halo 3 setup [update 1]


[Update: Just so everyone is clear, commenting on this post does not constitute entry into the giveaway. To do that, you must visit the actual giveaway post, which is linked all over this post. Commenting on this post will win you nothing except the possible admiration or condemnation of your peers.]

With our latest giveaway in full swing, we were worried that Li'l Chief would throw another hissy fit when he found out we were giving away a massive 50-inch HDTV, 5.1 surround sound system, and an Xbox 360 Elite -- in other words, the perfect setup for Halo 3. Fortunately, when you're only 8 inches tall, every screen is a big screen, so he's more than happy with a tiny 19-inch LCD. With that knowledge in tow, we feel safe in reminding our readers that the giveaway is still open. In fact, it will be open from now until next Friday. Not only that, but we're allowing folks to enter once every day. If you entered yesterday, that's a total of 12 entries for those looking to maximize their odds. So, head over to the official page now for your chance to win.

And before you ask, yes, we will be inundating X3F with daily reminders about the giveaway so that everyone who reads X3F -- both regular and occasional readers -- will have their shot.

9. For today's post (I want that crap!!!), I'll entertain you all with yet another poem. This one is by Lewis Carroll, and another of my favorite pieces. It's called "Jabberwocky". I chose it for the imagery..I can't wait to see what alien worlds and environments we'll see this time next week!

'Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.

"Beware the Jabberwock, my son!
The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!
Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun
The frumious Bandersnatch!"

He took his vorpal sword in hand:
Long time the manxome foe he sought—
So rested he by the Tumtum tree,
And stood awhile in thought.

And, as in uffish thought he stood,
The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame,
Came whiffling through the tulgey wood,
And burbled as it came!

One, two! One, two! And through and through
The vorpal blade went snicker-snack!
He left it dead, and with its head
He went galumphing back.

"And hast thou slain the Jabberwock?
Come to my arms, my beamish boy!
O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!"
He chortled in his joy.

'Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.
