AD, I hope you feel better soon!

Re: LTE 2.0
I am on a new laptop. I love my new laptop.
Best Buy had it on their front rack, it was priced $479. Originally it was over $500. They didn't have any specs on it, so I asked the guy to print out a spec sheet. He printed it out from their outlet center, and the price at the top of the page was $429. I asked if I could get that price, and he said they would match it. Wooohooo!

Re: LTE 2.0
Fordrl just texted me that they are getting ready to take a helicopter ride. I'm jealous...how fun! Hopefully she sends pics. (They are in Myrtle Beach on a "girls weekend".)
I took an introductory flight lesson here at the beach a few years ago..it was way cool. I got to take off, land, and fly the plane for about a half hour. The instructor never took over, which was both good and bad. Good because it was so fun, bad because I never got to take photos..lol.

Thanks to all the shin-kickers.
Get well AD. Maybe a big win tomorrow will help.

Went by the workplace early this afternoon and the doors were all locked. Very strange.
