So far today I finally put away my rifles from my last trip and ordered some more ammo.

About to make up a batch of potato sausage for Christmas.

It's a Swedish/Norwegian thing. 1/3 Pork, 1/3 Beef and 1/3 Potato and some seasoning. Excellent sausage.

I drove 3 hours and saw the knee doctor. He said, "Yep, they are shot, when can you come in and get replacements?"

Washed the wife's Corolla, my Subaru in prep. for the new rear bumper cover and exhaust system. Oil change on the RZR and cleaned it as well. Cleaned the garage and cut some firewood for the new fire pit in the back yard and tonight we're cleaning out the book closet. 2 degrees and 8 years of education (between the 2 of us) there are a lot of books and notebooks to be gone through.

Could be worse ^. What kind of laptop? I just donated one of my desktops to my wife this afternoon and we got it set up for her, but I may be in the market for a new laptop.

My primary is a Sony Vaio, and it works really good. I also have an IPad but for some reason, I can't access the administrative sections on the forums.

I have an ipad as well, but except for checking e-mail and looking at high res. porn. I find it useless. I'm still not sure what the allure of Apple products is. Even the iPhone is a mystery to me.

I agree. I just got a Samsung Galaxy III phone and it is great. You can have the I phone and its propriority apps.

I got an i4s recently and it's ok. There are things I like and things I don't. I think it's a Ford/Chevy sorta thing. And if it wasn't for porn, there wouldn't be an internet...;)

Working on getting the chassis set up. Polished stainless tubular upper and lower control arms, power rack and pinion, air ride front and rear. Hanging a 2002 Explorer 8.8 rear with 353 Trak-Lok. on polished, stainless triangulated 4 link bars from Ride Tech. 13" drilled and slotted disks with Wilwod 6 piston calipers.

Once I get everything fitted, the chassis gets a nice shinny powder coat. Anybody set up a 4 link from scratch??

I swapped out a hollow interior door for a solid wood one so I can put a dead bolt in it, The customer single lady was worried about someone breaking in her basement and kiking in the upstairs door. She asked if I could just put a dead bolt in the existing door but I recomended swapping out the door one sift kik to a hollow door with a dead bolt and they would be in. No pics I'll take some tomorrow.

Well, guess I'll get a job started this morning. Weather hasn't been good for roofing the last couple weeks.

^ I'm in the same boat. I was looking up water companies yesterday. Starting to not sleep at night is not fun.
