Did I mention that another person I considered a friend has been the subject if a federal RICO investigation. I certainly understand why he doesn't go around telling people, but I'm still a little uneasy.
edit: I'm uneasy because I know that he and another friend are planning on going into business together and I'm almost positive the other friend has no idea. I really don't want to butt in, but there are potential complications I think he should be aware of.

Personally, I don't care about it, all of the allegations were very white collar and doj dropped it when he left the company.

Holy smokes the mall is packed. It's as if people are standing in line just to give the salesclerks money. Shelves were picked bare. What recession? They actually had traffic cops in front of the mall and within the parking lot. Thank goodness LA wakes up late, and I got in by 11 am.

Why is it that whenever I've REALLY got to go, that's the time the drawstrings on my pants/shorts/trunks choose to get all knotted up?

How hard is it to find fuel? I know there is a station in my town for city vehicles, but I do not think it would be accessable to the public.

Ok is one of the largest natural gas producers, and Chesapeake, is one of the largest natural gas producing companies in the world, and they are lobbying hard for CNG, and providing a lot of the start up money to give it the push...

I've got a Pentium 4 631 - 3.0ghz 800mhz 2MB Socket 775 CPU ...
I found a Celeron in the drawer last night, but I doubt you want that.
Another P4 SL6WK 3.0GHZ/512/800
Nothing on the new side.

it has to be dual core, at least....

sellers on ebay are asking more than what the damn things go for new on newegg. to replace the CPU i cooked with the exact same one, which is 3 or 5 years old, sellers are getting ~$60 + $13 shipping. that is just nuts. i've been building PC's for almost 20 years and i have never seen anything like it.
