Birthday Wishes!
Hey everybody,
Thanks for the well wishes! Greg, not great weather, in the 30's, but sunny today compared to yesterday's Rain/Sleet mix! Not warm enough for these OLD BONES to get out and ride YET!
I did have a nice little FREE early b'day surprise yesterday, was driving home and turned off the main 2 lane onto the neighborhood road and noticed a bunch of little white balls strewn along the main road. IT was dark/evening and of course slightly sleeting/raining, but I stopped and got out to investigate!
What I found and COLLECTED was a nice batch of NEW Intech Platinum golf balls that had fallen out/off of someone's vehicle! It started out as a box of 36, found 26 of them in perfect condition, there might be a few more down in the roadside sewer/rain drain, but SWMBO wouldn't let me lift up the metal drain cover/lid! 
Earlier in the week, I was getting my little 2006 Ipod 5.5 gen vid/music player out of my bag/locker at work, and it slipped out of my hands and fell 5 feet onto the hard tile floor!
I proceeded to turn it on, but only got the little sad smiley face with the www.support.apple link in the video screen! 
So...I had killed the HD! I ordered one that Monday Evening on eBay for only $35.00, and got a free 100GB upgrade from the usual 80GB size/price, it arrived yesterday. I was able to open it up, swap it out with some modest surgery, and reformat the iPod OS onto it with iTunes, and reinstalled all of my music that I use while at work! When I took the old HD out and I shook it, it made a rattle kind of noise....not good! Here's what it looked like on the inside.
It was a dual platter HD, and the bottom platter had shattered in a few extra pieces!
I'm just chillin' at home today, will be going out to the Red Lobster this late afternoon for a combined B'day and Valentine's dinner with Swmbo via some nice gift cards I received from friends/coworkers! Think I'll have some LOBSTER ! 
Hope all of you are able to stay warm and enjoy your weekend, and Steppenwolf....hope you also have a great B'day as well!!!

Happy birthday guys remember you really don't get old till you stop ridding.To fix the problem one should not make more assumptions than the minimum needed.
