This morning I remembered it, now I forgot again.

Hmm... Could it have been a better memory?

Ivan, that's a neat gadget. I saw one that looks like a remote entry for a vehicle that's also a video recorder, and for about the same price! I'll see if I can dig it up.

I'd like a new mobo, proc, memory, and grapics card for the case, pwr supp, fans, and hard drives I have lined up waiting to be brought back to life, muwhahaha, MuwHaHaHaHa, MUWAHAHAHAHA! (cough, cough...)

I just would like to have an opportunity to get away from it all and travel to some poor region of the world and help out kids and people in need.

All I want is health and happiness for myself, friends, and family. I'll probably end up getting gift cards instead though.
