Yeah, I lost track of both Burn Notice, and Royal Pains when I was homeless, but now that I am able to get caught up, I decided to just start from the beginning. Just started the 3rd season. I may buy all the seasons of Covert Affairs too, but I don't know, I lost interest in that show after the second season.

Jim have you tried netflix? Better option for catching up on shows than buying disks, imo. I recently watched Breaking Bad and Lost from the beginning.

No, have not tried Netflix. I like having the DVD's because then I can watch them whenever I want.

One of the 3 desktops I have is still acting up. So much so, that I threw in the towel, and took it to a repair shop on Tuesday. It is still there. Attempts to put Windows 7 on it were futile, so I had them reinstall Windows Vista. It appears after 4 years of use, the motherboard is starting to fail. Also, it does not like the 8 gigs of ram I installed. It works with 4 gigs, but when the second 4 are put in the sound card disappears, and the video card gives error messages. Never heard of such a thing happening before. So I will just take the extra 4 ram out when I get it back, and wait until I get my second settlement check, and buy another HP to match the one I bought from Office Depot. Then I'll take out all the new parts I bought for the Acer desktop, and junk it. The hard drive and video card I can install in one of the HP's, I'll just buy a second video card and maybe a second hard drive, for the other HP. The ram I will probably sell on ebay since it is not compatible with the ram in any of the new computers.

Happy Sunday Nor Cal FTE and friends! Hope everyone has a blessed day. Today I get to take the Bronco to a friend who is going to install the three power window motors so the windows will work like they are supposed to. He is doing it for a third of the cost.

Well, as Dr Hank (of Royal Pains) is apt to say "Man plans, God laughs." My friend never returned my call to bring the Bronco over, even though he is the one who told me to call him after church. So, tomorrow I get to go over and find out what excuse he has this week. Since he has been delaying this for a month now. LOL

It is amazing what steel wool and a little elbow grease can accomplish. I bought a center cap for the Bronco from Pick N Pull awhile back that had orange paint on it, and I used steel wool to not only get the paint off, but it did a first class job of brightening the cap. Still have not put it on though, as I got the idea to brighten the two that were on it the same way.
