    Just came back from the eye doctor at the VA. Long visit. They are monitoring my macular degeneration and cataracts. New prescription, but they are paying for them. Maybe I'll see better. I can still drive, but have issues with glare. Could alway be worse.

    Remember, you need to keep that level of excercise to at least 3-5x a week for maximum benefit.

    Eventually you can move up to 30 pack squats.

    I bought a 30 pack of Highlife after work today. I've drank hundreds (ok, thousands) of these over the years so I know what it tastes like. This 30 pack tastes like crap. Has a very funny taste to it. Will711,with all your experience, have you ever run into this?

    Good point, I didn't realize how short the shelf life of beer is.

    It varies but can be quite short at times and non light blocking containers can shorten it.

    Went to Fry's and got some stuff to start wiring the puter

    Stinking power cables were all messed up
    Sata power cables not even gonna gitterdone

    After fooling with a mess of of adapters and extenders I said Nooooooooo way

    Drew up a schematic, got the meter and pinned the power plug out
    Headed to town and got colored wire
    Yellow
    Black
    Red
    Clipped off the plug that goes into the Power supply
    Clipped off the plugs for the 4 sata ends

    Started grafting it together

    Gonna be all neat and tidy when it's done

    In the open case there is no place for HASH

    And then the CPU power cable is a foot too short
    GAWD
    They don't make stuff that works me thinks

    Custom seems to be the order of business

    Especially on this beast
    About like wrenching on a well used pellet stove :rofl: :lol:

    Left for work well before dawn. Rode thru a lot of fog. When I got to work, the fog, clouds, still near-dark and first crack of dawn colluded to make a hauntingly spectacular vista (well, spectacular for being at the edge of the city anyway - would have been better without power lines running thru it). Naturally it looked much better in person than what I could capture with my phone
