Saturday the 13th I attended a LAN party that a co-worker holds at irregular intervals. I arrived first, dropped off homemade chocolate-chip cookies and fudge, set up my pc, and futzed about on the Internet until playtime.
I missed the last few games because I needed to leave early (work next day, and fatigue from chemotherapy), but participated in the majority of sessions. Of the games we played, I participated in:
- Serious Sam II
- Team Fortress 2
- Star Trek Elite Force II
- Far Cry
- Flatout 2
- Painkiller
The host added animation to the proceedings with exultant laughs, curses and insults hurled at other players. He did it all in a spirit of fun, of course, and others hurled just as much back, but at lower volume.
Everyone had a good time with a minimum of technical issues, making the LAN party a success.

Hey Hans, I'm glad to hear the LAN party went well. Team Fortress 2 is such a great game when you've got some friends over.
By the way, have you ever tried 6 Hour Power energy shots? You might have seen the commercial for them on G4. They're great for gaming sessions since they provide long-lasting energy without the crash. They come in 5 different flavors, have zero calories, and no sugar. Check them out at www.6hrpower.com
By the way, I hope you don't mind me commenting on your blog. I work with 6 Hour Power, so let me know if you have any questions about the drink. Let me know if you'd also like to hear about our contest going on right now where you can win a PS3 or Xbox 360 (your choice). We would love to hear what you think of our drink.

Being on chemotherapy, that's not something I feel comfortable putting in my body. That's the real source of my fatigue, chemotherapy.
Sorry, but no thanks.
