I spent a solid three hours just at Walmart today on a different bread route....


I'm hoping to start putting a bit of money aside to save for an iPod Touch....Wally world has 'em for $195 for the 8GB model. I'm about to check Apple's site and see what their price is. If I buy one from them I think I'll get a warranty plus I can have words engraved on the back for free.

True, but I'm not looking for a contract phone...I want the iPod touch because I can do a lot of stuff with it, yet I don't have to pay a bill for anything. It can use my own wireless internet to connect to the internet, and I can chat on AIM with it. I think there's also a text messaging app that allows me to text people's cellphones via the internet.

Mainly because I don't want (and can't afford) a contract phone right now.

I will check Best Buy though. I was kinda thinking of going through Apple directly so I can get the laser engraving for free.

If I have enough energy, I'm going to try and get that ol' carburetor apart tonight and let it soak in the carb bath overnight. I've put it off long enough, it's time I got to work...

EDIT: Ok fine you convinced me....I don't think my mind is in a state suitable for disassembling a precision fuel metering apparatus right now, anyhow. I don't think I have anything planned for tomorrow morning and afternoon so I guess that'd be a good time to start on it.

I'm just tired of slacking off and putting it off....I don't want my truck sitting again to cause something ELSE to get messed up.

Sometime early '10 I'm gonna see about sending both tanks in for cleaning, and maybe change the sending units and stuff. Been several years since I used the front tank last time, so I'm not sure it'd be a good idea to switch to it.

If you can't afford a contract right now, you can go the ebay/craigslist route to get the iphone that way. no need to get a contract
