    Congrats on the retirement date, Paul!!

    We had a dusting of snow here this morning - sun came out and melted it. Our temps ranged from -8 to +44 this week; it's about 37 now. The big snow we were supposed to get is now an inch or so.

    I am ready for spring to arrive, too!!

    Jim you really need to stop with the nice weather pics. ;)

    The storm is moving in from the south and the track is more southern now. We are expecting 5 to 10 inches of the white stuff starting around 7:00 tonight.

    I should have a new mother board for the PC here tomorrow then on with the replacement.

    I still may put together a new PC for a very doable price of under $1200. This includes a copy of Win7Pro. Processor and mother board combinations are driving me crazy it seems.

    Next week I am cashing in my change and I also have a $100 Amazon gift card to apply towards this monitor.

    http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00906HM6K...UTF8&colid=45AR6TK9ADR1&coliid=I1FBLW5FHM2OUF

    Selecting a monitor can drive you crazy as well. At least this one has an upgrade path to 3D if I decide to go that route.

    Same problem Rob with the HD & Lowes charges...got most of the basement done but now I have some drywall to finish, lights to get, shelving to get, etc.etc.etc....:eek:...I will give it a shot and if it works out, I might do it for awhile. Kids boss (owner of the company) is a good guy...known him for quite a few years and he has always taken care of my son. The best part is making my own schedule:D...Maybe I can even sneak over and help Homer with his grills from time to time:bored:

    Morning all:
    OMG: Would have to put at least 6 air conditioners in the house, or one really BIG one!
    Storm went South; NOTHING AT ALL, but calling for -2 deg. tomorrow.
    Was out on the ice yesterday, could only manage 1 little perch again.
    I swear, SOMEONE jinxed me, last 3 times out, 3 little perch!
    The one guy managed to pull a 37 1/2"-18lb. striped bass through the hole.
    Almost stripped all the line off the small reel, and gave the short 30" ice rod a workout.
