yeah, but my spade bit makes it just a little too big for the chips so some extra padding is needed and I'd like to have Rudy give me his 2 cents on that. I am sure I could do the actual upholstery part, if it is a flat display.

Not a problem...in fact I have a certified cashiers check for $5000 here that I'll send to you, if you send me the extra $2500 back..in $100 bills. Where do I send the check?

Bwahaha!

I got a call a while back from a guy (sounded Indian) who claimed he was from Microsoft and that I had a virus on my computer.

"Oh no!" Says I, "What must I do?"

He proceeds to try to walk me through the protocol for allowing remote access to my PC. I pretend to go along with him but that I am having trouble getting it to work. I string him along for about 10 minutes.

I finally tell him that I have been doing what he says but all that's happening is that a picture keeps popping up. Finally he asks me what the picture is and I say..

"It's me giving it to your mother up the ***"

He didn't take it well at all.....

Tracy, that was before you were a kinder and gentler person, right?
