U betcha! Lol.

Troubleshooting a computer issue is like working on an rv. When starting, it's good to start with the easiest and most likely first.

When that doesn't work, u proceed to the next logical step, and so on. Keep the most difficult for later, because it most likely isn't the problem, until it is.

2 days later, it's finally corrected and u are on your way.

Well, at least I am getting paid for some of the time. Lol.

Somedays - Computers - AAAAARRRRRRGGGGGGGHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!

You may remember a little while back, I took my saw horses apart because they annoyed me, based on how I built them.

I have to build a new set. I really miss having something to lay plywood and lumber on to work with.

The good news is, earlier this year, 2 x 3 x 8 foot lumber was about $5.50.

I checked tonight and they are down to $3.25.

Time to go to Lowes.

The destination is appreciated BUT the journey contains the HIGHS. "ITS THE ART OF THE DEAL."

My wife and I call things like that ... Memory Makers.

I like the journey as well.

Hey, we are all here for one of probably 4 reasons.

1. Learn something.

2. Laugh at the work/worker.

3. Shake your head in disbelief.

4. Just like traveling down the road in an rv ... wanting to see what is around the next corner, or over the next hill. Ya just never know what's coming. Lol.

5. All of the above.

Worst case scenario - It's good for a laugh. Enjoy!

Fixed it for you. :B

Thanks. I definitely missed that one! Lol.

I can or cannot read and or post as I please. I don't need your help and I certainly don't need your permission!

You are correct but if you are contributing absolutely nothing to the thread then why even be here? Seriously? You just want to knock someone's work? Surely, you must have something better to do with your time. Just avoid the thread and move on, it's the decent thing to do.

You can block me and never see another post of mine. Or mind your own business. The choice is yours.

I am reading this not becaause I want to do these things, but for the fact I have 79 vette that I bought new. I am hoping someday when the need arises that someone will love it enough to do to it what fulltimin is doing to his rig. My girl has almost 70,000 miles on her and has original paint. All original. As far as vettes go, she is nothing special, but shes mine and I love her.
