    My day started out getting lambasted as to 'How I was going to honor a $50 bet'. Once through that, I had to burn 100 CD's and needed to print 250 company brochures for a trade show next week (I had to mail by tomorrow). ALL three of my CD burners on the computers did not work for CD's I need for the show.

    My modem on my new Fujitsu Lifebook went south so I could not do any file transfers to print. My HP desktop would not 'Talk' to my Dell printer. I bumped my knee (First knee incident!) into my GF's CD tray and broke her drive. For the brochure I needed to print, I sent it to my GF's computer and could not open it to print it.

    I have to leave Wednesday AM to LA, come home for two days and go to Chicago. With today's bugaboo, I probably won't get everything done! Screw it! I went to the garage to get a cold 6-pack and rammed my knee into the rear bumper of my 308 while getting the beer.

    Thank God that Chelsea is well out of diaper age!

    The truck I'm driving around currently doesn't like to idle without quitting so I need to have my left on the clutch and be heel-toe ing at downhill intersections to keep the idle high enough to not quit on me. Oh and it lacks air conditioning, no radio, no power steering, no power windows, no power seats (and the seats are torn). I wish I had my Volvo back.

    Yeah, life is sweet. :(

    It seems that I am always fighting with cd burners and printers. All this stuff is supposed to make things easier.

    I'll be in Chicago on Thursday evening and Friday. If you are around I'll buy you a drink or something. With the way my week started off I know I'll need it.

    On my laptop I have to pull the usb cable a certain way for it to make contact. I've got to hold pressure on it until it is done printing. LOL

    I've got you all beat, I ran out of toilet paper in my upstairs bathroom.

    The place painting my Boxer hasn't done jacksh#t on it in 2 weeks, they were supposed to this weekend but their prep guy got his azz thrown in jail for some warrants due to not paying for tickets who knows when he will be out and the owner has a new guy to replace him but doesn't want to use him which is a good thing I guess on my car.

    I went in for a routine oil change and ended up buying an ecu and planning on purchasing cats in the near future.

    Darth I hate when you can't play your regular ball, I feel for you.

    I did see my ex-348 today at FoSF, felt kinda weird it was my first.

    goodnight

    Hey, I'm quoting myself, forgot to mention the toilet paper issue was not that bad though ended up using the cover of an old Road and Track magazine I was reading, by coincidence it had a Lambo on the cover so it worked out well.

    A customers 456GT has had a constant overheating/running hot problem, so I had to drive it for 45 minutes today to try and replicate the problem.

    Yeah, I know what you are thinking, a 456GT...Thankfully it was a stick and not a 456GTA.
