ACK I ALMOST MISSED THE POST! PLEASE I HOPE YOU DIDNT BUY THE BLACKBERRY LEE! I had a storm and went through 6 in 6 months withoud doing anything to them, no water no moisture just failed on me. I will not speak for all blackberrys but if that one is gonna be an example, it was a poor one. I just got a Droid from motorolla and its 10 times the phone the blah-bury is.

Good evening MN....


Good to see a lot of chatting tonight!

Jay, I'm an ethical hacker, some of my network tools are used for hacking, it's the only way to secure a network properly. When you need to protect something who's the best to test it?

Hey Troy, if you are out there, there is a truck tomorrow on an estate auction. It is not a Ford, so may not be a good possibility. It is a dreaded Dodge Cummins. 98 with only 82000 miles. Thought I would just mention it just in case.
Thanks for the tip Lee but he is a Ford man for sure!!

Evening Steve and Miles!

I have a Blackberry Storm myself. It's a second gen and is a lot better than the early ones. But I'm not really gonna recommend it either...

I just posted this pic for Lee in the camping thread but I thought I would bring it over here for everybody to enjoy. Those Dodge guys never cease to amaze me.



Here is another Dodge guy I saw in town. Gotta love those stacks!!

This guy lives about 30 miles from me and as far as I know that is all custom made. I believe he did it himself. Actually the construction part of it is impressive although I wouldnt ever do that to anything I own.

Yeah, the deal looks well made for sure. But why not just get a tractor? LOL

To each their own!

I am assuming he has alot of time on his hands. But you never know when you have to move that emergency snowpile. Just think how much counterweight he must have in the back to counteract the weight up front.

You wouldn't think too much. Unless he has like 2-3,000 lbs in the back...

Good evening Troy, Dave, Miles, Lee, and Jay!

I wouldn't recommend any of the Blackberry's, I maintain two dozen different models for the company and they are very buggy, we can go through 3-4 before getting one that works, then they do a firmware update and mess them all up. We get them because they are free with our service for the sales people and directors.

I have an iPhone and so does the CEO, President, and Senior VP of the company.......
