Come in! Have a margarita or root beer? How about some fresh trout? :)

Nah not really, still procrastinating... My phone line to the house has been down since 2 or 3 weeks ago :( No house phone = no dsl... Haven't been really online since then. Im at my neighbors right now. Actually tommorow after work I was planning on running down to this electronics store my mom told me about. Probably somthing like Frys. Hopefully i'll find what im looking for there because the big corporate chains have been no luck to me... all of them keep trying to get me to get a new powersupply... the one guy felt like a used car salesman to me lol. i'll keep you updated.

Ahh Im back, for now, apparently all the phonelines in my neighborhood are old and crappy or somthing... they gotta lay new lines eventually. But we all know how long that will take, ill be moving out by then :P . I finally got that part i needed from a local electronics store. Only had one in stock of what I needed, so I was psyched. Just waiting for a good chance to meet with my neighbors father again so we can get go and have it up running.

All's good, then of course with my great luck it goes bad again... Theres alot to kinda explain and we aren't even 100% sure what the problem is. Dave I called you about 10 minutes ago, im that weird out of state number :) If you have time just give me a ring whenever, usually im not busy unless im working, and I can anwser the phone when im working to let ya know im there. . If anyone else would like to here what i've got to say and wouldn't mind giving me some input, pm me your phone number and a good time to call around. Of course I could type it if you wouldnt want to give out your number, just lemme know.

Thx,
-John

Not a problem man, I realize ya have a life and were probably busy, but I thought i'd give it a shot. I'm off work this evening so anytime after 6EST. till about 12am EST. Is a good time for me. I'd say you could call before 6 but today I gotta go for a physical and cough.

Whats this hero's show btw ?

The Hero show is going to be pretty cool. Kinda like the XMEN comic series a few people around the globe are starting to realize they have unique powers. One girl is almost invincable, heals from any injury immediately. Another guy can bend time and space, even teleport. Another can fly. One girl has an evil ultraviolent side to her personality it appears. And the most intriguing one guy thinks he is crazy because he paints things that then happen in the future.

Behind all of this is some evil guy that looks to try and use them.

I think it will be very neat.

After getting off the phone with Dave... Windows XP is formatting and is currently at 79%! I'm psyched, thx again Ice. I'll have pics on here in a couple of days once I get all of my stuff onto the computer, and I clean up the inside and install these UV lights!.
