Mrs. Cookie is much more important than starting a new OT thread to give all us addicts some place to gossip. When you say "something happened" we all hope it's what we're thinking it was!
Happy Anniversary by the way. I have a lot of respect for folks who know what commitment means.

Come on, Friday! I see a fat steak from Saltgrass and some cold Lonestars in my near future.
Oh, been meaning to update all of you. Dallas is doing much better. It's unbelievable. Today she roade into town in the truck for the first time in over a week (not counting the emergency run to the vet). I still picked her up and put her and also lifted her down though. No jumping for her anymore I am afraid. Taken today in town:

I hate it too, with a passion. We build oilwell drilling motors. Each one is unique. We are a job shop, essentially. Each motor is custom built, no two are alike, literally. They expect us to build them like an assembly ****ing line, sorry it ain't happening.
They passed out a questionaire not too long ago asking the employees for their ideas on process improvement. One of my guys wrote, "Fire the Lean manager and hire Japanese robots to do our jobs". The Lean manager was super pissed, I laughed my butt off.

Funny over-clocking came up -- I'm messing with that right now. I just picked up another CPU to play with off ebay -- Athlon 64 3200+. It's supposed to run at 2GHz, but I'm running it right now at 2.25 GHz. It still gets a little unstable though. How high can I run the core voltage up before I should be worried? I believe it's supposed to be at 1.4V, and I'm running ~1.575V. This is on air cooling -- don't care to tinker with liquid cooling. I had good luck with my other chip (Sempron 3000+, 1.8GHz) by just bumping the clock up to 2GHz. I had it running 2.1 GHz for a while, but didn't test it fully before the the 3200+ got here.
I'll probably head out and work on the EBPS tube and door lock actuator. The passenger rear is starting to act up, so the pesky thermal relay is getting bypassed...

Lisa, don't be too surprised if they drag their feet making the offer. If they can get you anxious, you'll be more inclined to take a low offer rather than counter. It's all a game, and their realtor is probably advising them on how to play it.
