Braussie: It's the warmest it's been all day. It's -4F (-20C) outside, as it started off -20F (-29C) when I woke up, not counting windchill. It's cold enough that my car wouldn't start (I don't have a garage nor engine block heater, so that can happen sometimes when it's this cold). I just moved back from California, so I haven't had a chanace to get everything I would need/want that way. Anyway, I check out the bathroom and find a leak coming from under the toilet. The wax seal has probably worn through and needs replaced. I shut off the water, made a call, and got a ride to work. When work was done, I got a ride home from a coworker... Like I said, I just moved back and so I needed to do some laundry. I leave early in the morning to fly out to California for 5 days to spend time with my wife and kids, which I haven't seen in 3 months. After the washing machine is done, I end up going into my bathroom and discover my pipes are frozen...

How did I find out, you ask? Was it simply that no water was coming out of the pipes? No, that's not it- water comes out of the faucet fine. Was there a lot of cold? No, it felt normal. Well, how DID I find out? All the water from the washing machine pushed through the system, making raw sewage fill both bathtubs, the toilets, and try to come out of the sinks.

I call a few friends, then decide to call a plumber. The first plumber stated there are special certifications required to work on my type of home, so he wouldn't be able to do it. He was real curtious about it, and gave me suggestions on what to look for to get someone who can work on the home for emergency repairs. I call the next guy and he is a complete asshat, and responds "well, then, I'll put you on the list." He then proceeds to treat me like an idiot when I ask him "So, does that mean I'll get a call or something when someone's available or what?" Beyond treating me like an idiot, he refuses to answer the question. Needless to say, I start getting pissed off at this point. I then call the only other number I can find.

The plumber tells me how much everything would cost, and it is way more than i can afford. So I'm stuck in a house smelling like shit and piss, hoping to magically find a way to get this stuff fixed. Remember- my car didn't start, so I can't drive myself anywhere to get supplies...

I then call my wife and tell her about it all. She told me her went in for some surgery to remove recalled medical implants that prevent your insides from falling out (a hysterectimy a decade or so ago) and prepare for another surgery to replace the recalled implants. Well, the doctor found out that the lab assistant used non-sterilized, used instruments... which means she has to go in for testing for hepititus, AIDS, and other potentially transmitted diseases from their use.

Oh, and during the surgery they discovered she has cancer.

I normally don't swear, but I fucking hate this day...
Geez, man.
Praying for you and your wife if that means anything.
Hope things get better.

My heart goes out to you and your wife, this is sad news indeed. I hope nothing bad comes of any of this, aside from what's already taken place... Man... =(

Here is Velvet Assassin hidden away:

First - rot17
Second - rot3
Third - rot 2-(1+2)+2+10

Second - Third - First

(I hope I did this is all correct, made the mistake of going away from the computer for 10 minutes half way through)

This was the answer AJA7R-NJKN0-9RQ5K

Taken now obviously. The Three parts were encoded seperately and swapped around, I gave the answer to decode the parts as they were given, then the correct order to put them back in.

Yep, that is why it took me longer to figure it out. For example encrypted rot17 can be decrypted by using rot(26-17) i.e rot9 and so on.

Egad, that is insane a $100 bucks per game, only ballers can afford gaming then.

Wow. i could buy several games on GoG and on Steam with $100. Heck even tons of bundles.
i guess i'm glad Ps4 AC4 here would only cost me $10-$15
while the ps4 itself would cost me $451

did you get any games with your PS4?
I read that the PS4 costs more than 1.800 USD in Brazil. That is completely ridiculous.
