Ain't no party like a LAN party, and every August, thousands of gamers from around the world stream into Dallas for the largest one in the world: QuakeCon, billed as "the Woodstock of gaming." Built around a series of Quake Live tournaments with around $50,000 in prizes--plus a pair of new Shelby Mustang GT500's--it's an epic bring-your-own-computer event, and it has been for nearly 15 years. From the first casual meet-up of id Software devotees at a Best Western in Garland, the conference has grown to a no-sleep orgy of gamer news and virtual shooting that has the run of the Hilton Anatole for four days. As he has every year, John Carmack--the gaming guru behind Doom, Quake and Rage--will deliver a keynote talk about what id Software's been up to (Doom 4 rumors, anyone?), while other game design leaders lead specialized panels throughout the tournament, drink at the hotel bar and do pretty much anything other than sleep. QuakeCon runs Thursday through Sunday at the Hilton Anatole, 2201 Stemmons Freeway. Admission is free; bring your own computer and visitquakecon.org for a schedule of panels and more info.

These are actually things I do consistently. Below is a good outline of what to follow. For more details you can view the vidoe segment below.

.25Cents wings at KFC

Well, it's the weekened. For most of us, its a week until we get paid, but we are celebrating the weekend non the less. If you have the joy of having people over this weekend, yet no time to cook, grab a few bucks and head over to KFC with this coupon. .25cents hot wings is a great easy deal. 20 wings is simply 5 bucks. That's a great meat plate if your doing a party. Enjoy! 

Thanks Heather!
