I dislocated something in my wrist and strained my back and kinked a knee and damaged a $1200 piece of furniture in the last 24 hours.

At least the furniture is oak and it did crack along the grain. If I am careful, the damage should be easy to repair structurally and cosmetically.

But the resale value is gone.
Sorry to hear you've injured yourself Antman, sorry but I think personal injury more important than furniture.
At least you're still getting Internet connection so you can keep in touch with us and we can cheer you on with the move :party:

Hey Wally, did you remember to change your clock settings in the Bios?
Tks Zen. It is all in " Auto" . Although CPUid is telling me it is running at 2GHz
Let me research a little and maybe post in the right place. No big deal, although I would like to know how my memory is running. This board should support DDR2 1066MHz with an AM3 socket, which is what I have

My most significant shortcoming, professionally, is my absolute lack of tact and sugary goodness.

Never had a taste for it.

Today, I had to say good-bye to all "my children" in the neighborhood. Some were quite upset, some were resigned to the inevitable. Some did not believe me. We wrapped up the weekend with an impromptu chips, cookies and soda party on my back porch.

I do not know how to reconcile my patience and tolerance with the little ones with my absolute disdain for the same qualities in adults.

Children are truly innocent, the rest of (for the most part) suck...

interesting thread. Today I finished up setting for my new 3G (though the cell phone) internet connection, cooked my wife dinner and had my right side go though micro spasms which left my right arm without feeling for 3 hours and then played AA for a few hours until the battery died. now I am surfing the net.

Today I'm feeling a little bit sick, wondering if I should call it for a day and go home even it's only noon here...

No, that's not true. But my wife called about half an hour ago and told DHL just delivered my Windows 7 Launch Party Kit, including the Seven Ultimate Signature Edition. Can't wait to get home!

That must be the hardest part in moving. I hope you can still maintain contact with your little friends.

If you have a fever, it is immoral to place others at risk. If you do not have a fever, suck it up.

;)
Truly noted. I decided to show I have backbone: even my Signatur Edition waits at home, I'll stay at the office. But I have to honest with you, I have not waited something this much since I was a kid and Christmas was coming closer...

WTF is a woot? Yeah, I know, google is my friend.
Woot: an Internet retailer based in the Dallas suburb of Carrollton, Texas?

But I am also glad Ken is back!
