I hear you. My son lives in the Seattle area and I'm always looking at the clock when I can call him. Usually I wait to see him log into IM and then I know I can call him, well after he has his coffee. Just like his father. I'm a bear in the morning until at least two cups of coffee then you can talk to me.

Here is me(center) and the wife. Never mind the guy in the left!
That's umm... A very nice red X you have there.

I'm not a coffee guy. But I know what you mean about the bear part. First half hour or so in the morning I'm a zombie. My girlfriend laughs all the time how out of it I am on the phone.

No it's about time for her to head upstairs. Anyway if her desktop blew up I have maybe 6 other computers she would be able to get on. Occupational hazzard, computer geek many computer in house.

I've got a laptop and desktop here so I'm good as long as the cable modem survives the blow up. And I have a friend's here waiting for him to make room in his apartment for it. Extra insurance.

Now Lori is a bike person. She has her license to drive one....

That's probably why I'm not into them I was a rider on the bike versus a driver.

Wish I paid more attention to Microsoft back in 86 when our company got bought up and I got a lump sum payout to invest, large for that time. I still kick myself on that one......

The last time I road was 15+ years ago.... trust me, I'll be riding hers for a while and then... when I have enough cojonies.... I'll jump on mine.

This was something I've been wanting for so long.... It's almost the same color as my C5... even down to the black accent graphics It was ment to be....
