Hey, guys.
The cable broke at the lever. I have to say that it had been acting dufferently recently, so I can't say I'm surprised.
There is a guy in here selling some cables, I hope he responds quickly.

My friends, on a serious note, today is Suicide Prevention Day. I will be lighting candles tonight at 8 PM for my daughter Megan and for Jack's Brother. Please be aware, we lose to many people every year to this....
