Back in the Saddle

I'm back in the saddle again, thanks to Terence. My graphics board (mother board) on my olde laptop died, and it would take a minimum of $400 to replace it. For that kind of money I/we could buy a new one, or one that's reconditioned, and that's what he did.

Thank you Terence.

It's a Toshiba Satellite.

It's nice and fast. Now. However, when I got it, it had Windows Vista, and that don't work, and neither did anything else on the laptop. So, I took it in to my computer wizard and he did his magic and got me up and running. We took the olde harddrive from the olde computer and turned it into an external harddrive for backups. Slick.

At work, we had two guys quit in two weeks. They decided to go with a flatbed company out of Denver that promised them, nay, GUARANTEED them, $6k per month and home weekends. I ran a skateboard for 13 years, and know for a fact that that was a bogus claim. IF there was money to be had doing so, I would have been there already. I'll stick to running a tanker.

The snow is unrelenting.

I have a new reason to celebrate Cinco de Mayo: my bankruptcy was discharged on May 5th.

A lot's been going on, but can't really divulge all of the info at this time. When the time is right I will, so y'all will have to wait.

Until next time...
