    I've had injuries like that before. I use gauze pads and that hard bandaging tape. I guess your doctor probably wants you to keep it exposed to the air though.

    I just bought a router. It is the RYOBI R163K fixed base router. I am going to make a table for it.

    And down further into the rabbit hole I go ...

    I bought a router not too long ago, but it was a D Link N router..lol Netgear has just become junk lately, nothing but problems. I'd have to reset it all the time, sometimes daily to get the internet working again. The D link doesn't give me any trouble at all!

    I know I know, you were talking about a power tool! Men and their power tools!!! lmao

    I bought a D-Link and it lasted like a year. The only router that's worth a **** is the oldschool blue Lynksus with the two antennas.

    I have a D-Link that's given me zero problems for the last 5-6 years. Never even have to reset the thing. Those old blue Linksys routers were great, but I've been replacing a bunch of them lately.

    Yeah, those old Linksys routers are practically indestructible. The newer ones with the internal antennae suck. They're way too flaky and need periodic restarts in order to keep working. I finally got tired of replacing them and picked up a refurb Netgear WNR1000V2 from Tigerdirect.com's retail store. Not one single issue since and that's probably been the better part of a year now. Cisco's consumer products suck, their enterprise stuff is great, but way too expensive for general home use. Now if only my Netgear was compatible with DD-WRT...

    We just got Uverse, and it came with it's own router. By the way, nobody get Uverse, it sucks. But up until that we had an old school Lynksis Wireless G router for about 6 years. I don't get the big deal about a faster speed router. I mean, Wireless G is way faster than the cable internet anyway.

    Trying to keep this thread going. Went to the recycling place today, and turned in 4 catalytic converters and 820lbs of scrap metal from behind the shop for $198. That's easy money.

    dang, not bad. i have a few things i might get a few $$$ for.

    i haven't done anything on the cars lately, except for driving the stang a little. my son needed my minivan for a couple weeks, so that leaves the stang to drive. it has been very nice lately, and i have had the top down most of the time. tomorrow it is supposed to ne 70 and partly sunny.

    i really need to get off my a$$ and finish hiding the wires in the fairlane so i can get that on the road again.

    so i've finally resolved myself to buying another stang. i want a 94-98 gt vert, black top, gray interior, automatic. any color but black or yellow. price cap at 4k, don't want anybody's heavily modded project. i just want a driver. you'd think the proclaimed slowest red headed step child mustang would be a dime a dozen, but NOOOOOOOOO. i'm getting frustrated because i used to see these for sale all the time, but now when i actually have money to buy one i can't find a single one that fits my criteria. i'll take a different top as will usually need to be replaced soon enough anyway. interior could be white or red, cloth or leather, just not tan. i could deal with manual if i found the right car.

    i found one dude on corral selling a 94 exactly what i want but he has a guy buying it saturday. i found a beat one at a dealership, it sold the day i went to look at it. i found one in northern VA but the guy isn't getting back to me.

    grrr....

    What kind of budget you looking for? There are TONS down here in northern FL if you'd want to take the drive. Search Jacksonville craigslist.

    too bad you don't want black. mine (without the motor) might have been just the right project for you.

    I have a decision to make as well. My boys have been asking me for a project to do with them. My 13 year old son has been winning races on iRacing against professional drivers. They are telling him he may have the goods. So now he's asking me for a GoKart. I need to either be a GoKart Dad going to events or get a Mustang project. I'm going to set up a GoKart rental event a PBIR for him and have a professional evaluate his laps.

    Here is him practicing at Daytona in the truck series. He's the blue #1 Truck.



    At Charlotte with used up tires. He's the blue truck.

    Sorry about dragging my feet on providing info about my car. My wife's dad is very weak and my not have much time left, so that has been taking priority. I just need to wash it and vacuum it out so I can snap some pics of it for you.

    Very cool. I think a good cart for your son would be a great investment. They aren't very expensive, and you can honestly have more fun in one of those then you can driving a real car on the road.

    And I wouldn't mind being a GoKart Dad. I have another son who's 6 years old and this kid has no fear. It's almost scary. He's already been iRacing, I can see this kid being a race car driver. I'm going to rent a cart at Moroso for my big son soon.
