Hey, Larry........aside from my personal Doctor, I have 5 different specialists that I'm dealing with. The problem is my BP caused by a kidney problem, so there's 4 meds for that alone. I've been told that it's a long slow process to get it under control. Think .."trial and error" without too much "error". Kidney guy is a good guy. When i complained about all the meds, he said " Hey, I can get it down real quick, but I might kill you in the process"

. Same guy who told me " You can have 14 drinks a week, but not all in the same night"....So he's OK by me

I've had one turbo car, didn't make it home from the dealer. I don't want turbos, variable valves, 4 valve/cyl, or high power tiny motors you used to only find in race cars, too complex to fix myself, too expensive to fix. I like cubic inches, plenty of them. Next pickup truck, if I ever find one I'm willing to pay for, will probably have some of that complicated stuff, the dinosaurs I like are going away.

Installed game... when they went to on line games I lost interest.

Every time he plays one, it's several minutes to over an hour to "update" the damned game, and occasionally pauses for a fraction of a second, during which 60 other players kill him. Sure wish I could get the new Flght Sim on dvd, know if I tried it on line it would frustrate the hell out of me. And it would take over 100 dvds...
