Huh! Now that you mention it, it DOES kinda seem that way, don't it? Aaaannd just what team are YOU playing for that would make you think that way in the 1st place, hmmmm? Is your reply actually a round-a-bout subliminal suggestion that YOU'D really like to be the one sleeping with him? Or worse yet, ME?

How old is that phone Mark? Most of them have GPS in some form or another, mainly for identifying the users position when they call 911, but I'm wondering if the carrier can somehow pinpoint its' general location if it's turned on and functioning.

Just a thought.

Not old, but I don't have the GPS enabled. It has not made any outgoing calls, and it goes straight to voicemail. I'm guessing that it fell off the truck and got busted, and someone picked it up.

Already good stuff in the breakroom!
I have been working on mending the nets today. Only had all winter to do it so I wait until the last minute.

Wife cleaned the microwave yesterday, it was nasty. Today I pull a cheapo hot dog out of the freezer and threw it in for two min. That sucker blew up like a meat grenade! Hot dog guts all over. Cleaned it up but am still in trouble for not using the cover she bought (its not the first time). Oh well.
Beautiful day here!

All LEDs are polarized but about half of the ones I used come on a circuit board that apparently will reverse the voltage for you. I got in a hurry and forgot that the ones I had for the turn signals weren't like that and I probably put them in backwards.

Thanks! Once it actually gets dark outside I'll get the real camera out and take some better pics.
