As soon as they e-mail me the pics I will put one up. This is actually the second time this has happened to me.

B@stards.

How does that go? Do me once shame on you. Do me twice shame on me. I think that's it with a little play on the correct words for this family orientated forum.

We can probably handle that.

Sorry for all of the grammatical errors Mark. Everyone has their lazy moments.

Wow Lisa, I am really impressed. Where in the world did you get that word from. I do not think I've ever seen it used in a sentence in my life, and it's correct too. I've found in most of my Internet play that the majority of the participants appear to be borderline illiterate.

Wow thanks Dan. Same goes for your hubby. She never has to worry about paying to have anything fixed, that's for sure.

And Mark, if I'm illiterate, my alma mater has really done me a disservice. I have a B.A. in Technical Journalism, so out of everyone here I really should be using proper grammar. I do get lazy though, especially on the internet.

My mother had a degree in Journalism too, so with me being a high school dropout I suppose I have to thank her for my somewhat limited ability to get by. I sure was not implying you're illiterate in any way, shape, or form.

Some of the most brilliant people I've known barely got through High School. It's my theory that there are different "types" of intelligences. My brother and father are perfect examples.

Mark I didn't take offense to anything you said, sorry if it came across that way. I'm sure that with your mom being who she was, you were berated anytime you said or wrote anything that was incorrect. lol.

Journalism was actually sort of a bizarre degree for someone with my personality, but at least some part of me did it just to prove to myself that I could. I had dyslexia growing up and I used to sit for hours at a time practicing my spelling until I finally got it right. So what better way to prove to myself that I had mastered my learning disorder than to get a degree in it?

Seriously, Scott, we need pictures of the grey tape incident. If I were you, I would wage war.

best trick I ever got for keeping track of everything- ziplock bags. I think it was in hot rod or car craft 20 some years ago.....when you take it apart, throw all the fasteners/ etc. in a ziplock with labels/ diagrams, etc. Makes long term reassembly much simpler. Worked for me when I used to buy wrecked cars and rebuild them and the few restorations I have done in my life as well.

Instead of rooting through a coffee can for a bolt you have to spread the contents of a box out on the floor, sort all the stuff leftover from the last project, then the last bag you look at will be the one you are after.... or if you are REALLY organized you could put them in some kind of filing system I suppose.

The guy that took the picture cannot figure out how to get it off of his cell phone.....duh. Hopefully he'll get it off of there tomorrow.

Oh don't worry, Lisa, war will be waged. I already have a little something planned for the ringleader of the coup.

Can he send picture messages? All he has to do is email it to himself.

I dunno. The guy that took the picture works for QA and you know how THOSE guys are....

He said he was going to bring his cable in and download it. I didn't have time to go over there and show him how to work his phone but I will tomorrow.
