Hey Mark,

Just a suggestion for ya. When your done with the wiring of the out let, throw a wrap of black electrical tape around the perimeter to cover the screws. Then if you have to pull the outlet out, the screws are covered and you lessen the chance of a shock.

Here is the 46" as a monitor, also hooked up to cable.







not sure I will leave it set up like this, I may move it to a corner and pull the desk back away a couple feet.

Scotty, I will let you know how I like the Quattron. I installed it and watched about 5 minutes of Clash of the Titans in high def. the picture was WAAAAAAY different than my Aquous. It was almost life like.

Dude, if you're gonna host them on PB, why use the thumbnails? Good lookin setup, but it'd be too big for me. I like my 21 on the PC we have.


Afternooner. Just hit some left over olive garden, been working out in the yard, enjoying life.

Afternoon!

Mark, the Indiana electricians are the same way, at least the ones that built this house. I worked on an outlet recently in our house and had alot of extra slack too.

Watched the Seahawks Bears game this afternoon. The wife is happy the bears won. Next weekend the Packer will play Chicago, hopefully Green Bay wins!

Wife is at a baby shower this afternoon.

I'm either going to reheat the stuffed peppers I made last night for dinner or fried some perch tonight.

If that were the case there would be a roll of paper towels not a box of tissues.

You guys are out of your mind.

Who you talkin to?

Evenin. Finished moving a lot of dirt in the back yard, trying to level it out a little for when we put the pool up in a couple more months. Caulked up the edges of the overhang that had huge gaps in it that let crickets in. Gonna wash momma's truck in the morning, then I'm not sure after that.

Angie made some really good breakfast casserole this morning... fried hashbrowns on the bottom, scrambled eggs, bacon, lots of cheese, with cheddar cheese soup mixed with a few other things poured over it all to make a nice gooey concoction that holds it all together... REALLY bad for your heart, but it's worth it.

Ok, gonna chill a little. I'll be around.
