At this rate, I put it before May.

Well, it looks as though after more than twelve years of service, my N64 is dead. Cartridge-blowing no longer works, and despite pressing the power button and doing the toggle trick, the display fails to switch over. Goodbye, old friend.

Not the first time being wrong, but it is one of the few times that I've been glad to be wrong.

Haha, me too!

I actually just got it back on...Thank GOD I have an uncle that's a union electrician that lives 5 minutes from here, or I would have had ZERO power tonight.

One of the lines behind the meter was corroded and also where the meter connects to the breaker, one of the connections was loose, and heat was building up and melting the plastic around the line...Vectren doesn't cover that and he was planning on turning BOTH sides off.

I owe Donny(uncle Donny) at least two cases of beer for that one...Especially since he missed most of the first half of the bball game to help me.

Shew, I'm sitting here in my boxers waiting for the house to cool off...It's still 81 in here, but is much better than 85 like it was a few minutes ago.

Thanks for the rep Joe, Ya Da Man!!!

I got a livescribe pen this afternoon and need to figure out how to make it work.

Hopefully it will help me organize notes better.

WTH is that?



On a side note, These religion threads are going crazy.

 

[Benny]

I always say "you're welcome" to my 6-year old so he remembers to say thank you.

We do too...Since Xander has been ~3, he's always said please, thank you and you're welcome...Up until about 3 months ago when he developed an attitude I'm about to start slapping out of him if he doesn't start being more respectful to his elders.

Thanks for the rep Joe, Ya Da Man!!!

You're welcome.



Holy crap! Since the power was out, I had the windows open and one of them doesn't have a screen in it...I just reached down to grab my beer and a wasp was on it.:eek"

Dang, that was a close call...The palm of my hand touched it, but luckily he couldn't turn around in time

My attention span is short.
Give it to me in "stupid non computer person" terms

That Duke Coach needs to retire. He's been coaching the same team longer than I've been alive.

It's basically a pen that digitally records what you write as well as it records audio. You then plug it into your computer and it downloads your notes... software can even translate the text.

That's really cool, but why don't you just take notes on your computer?

But, I guess a better question(s) would be what kind of notes are you taking/where are you taking them...
