    Indeed, however it's only six man, so don't panic. Under certain rare circumstances it is allowed.

    Indeed it is the poopsmith. I seem to have a knack for stirring the stuff lately.

    Car update;
    Timing belt broke, or rather, new timing belt broke. Just had the timing belt changed in like August or September.
    Now to find out why it broke, and what damage it may have done.
    My friend who is working on my van has the same van, and put the exact same timing belt kit in his van before he did my timing belt. Now they're a bit worried about driving their van. So, he is definitely interested in finding out what went wrong exactly.
    He'll be able to tell me more Sunday probably.

    Low end, it could be around $300.
    High end, it could be over $1000.

    Good luck with it, that's not fun at all.

    My wife is a wreck, she bumped into another car yesterday in a parking lot. The damage was all to our van, the damage being a light scuff on the corner of our bumper. The people were supposed to get back to us last night but we didn't hear from them. I hope, for their sake, they don't go to insurance as their provider would bleed them out if the company found out (my parents have the same provider and they get screwed around with all the time).

    Other than that, it's Friday! :)

    Endless hours of staring at spreadsheets made by an incompetent secretary. Trying to fix her mistakes and turn in state reports that were due 2 weeks ago. Highlight of my morning was my shave lol.

    Spent the evening with the 'phews yesterday. It was a blast. We hooked up my new 3d converter (it finally arrived!), played around with it and tested it to see how good the 3d effects worked, went outside and shot the pellet gun for a bit, and then went to DQ for supper. All in all, a pretty good evening.

    And the 3d thing? I went in with lowered expectations... that thing is awesome! For $40 it can't be beat. It's not Cinema quality by any stretch of the imagination, nor is it quite on par with the big expensive 3d tvs, but for the price difference, it does a spectacular job. I had read in the reviews that the 2d>3d conversion was disappointing, but in my experience, I'm finding it to be not much worse than when Hollyweird does one of their butchery conversion jobs to a movie that wasn't filmed in 3d but they insist on releasing it in 3d. Like I said, $40 well spent.

    When your done with those, you can feel free to come to my workplace and work on the spreadsheets that an incompetent accounting program spits out... :/

    Indeed..the good news is that we still seem to be decidedly sorey. Yesterday, me and a young Canadian lady gently collided in the supermarket. There was, I'm happy to report, a resounding sorry issued in unison by both parties..:eatdrink047:
