I dunno if I'd say counting down the year would be a "bright side"...that's rushin yer life away,my friend

Yep,it's official,torn muscle in the back,same one I tore loose last year mtn biking (ok...mtn bike crashing,LOL!).....I'll milk this for a month


Flurrying here,39 degrees.

[olskoolrodder]

Woke to this this morning...


Pics don't really do it justice...it's flat pouring now,LOL!

Back's still out,but a little better

[george53]

Oh Man, I'm feelin for ya Brother!!! Back pain is the WORST!!! I gotta pinched Sciactic nerve that'll go out with somethin as simple as a dam SNEEZE!!! I KNOW wat YOU got is 10 times worse! You got anyone to shovel that mess for ya? As long as I DON'T pick up a shovel I'm ok. THAT's why I got me BIG Red! Started flurriein last nite(did it ever stop) an sposed ta snow thru the day an evenin again, so we'll see wat it ends up at. Ta be honest with ya Olskoo, i don't really worry about the time anymore. I'll be goin home when I'm called, so I just like ta try an enjoy EVERYDAY I'm given. If it bothers ya I won't do it anymore. But if it DON'T, well then, ONLY 311 days ta go!!!!

[olskoolrodder]

LOL! NO it doesn't bother me Twas my twisted humor again,hahaha!

Well,the 2 vertibrea I broke in me neck (C's 2 & 4) occasionally "slip out of joint/sinc",and put pressure on the chord...but aside from not being able to look left or right (not much pain there though,unless I try and force it),it'll "send/receive false brain signals to/from the right hip",telling me it really hurts when (the Doc says) it really doesn't (yes it does,LOL!). Fortunately,this back prob isn't related...though it seems to set that off

Still flurrying a little here,we gots about 4-5",but it seems to be melting off pretty quickly (thanks Sun!)

Have you all missed me yet? LOL. Been fighting with this 8+ yr old computer for the last few weeks now and that last little bug I got on it didn't help it any. But that will soon be over as I have a brand new computer in the mail to me as we speak. Its got an AMD quad-core Athlon processor with 4GB of DDR3 1333 RAM, NVidia 1GB video card, with 4 cooling fans (1 front intake, 1 side intake, 2 top exhaust) and liquid cooling on the processor!! Along with a slick black case with side window and blue neon lights inside he he. Also bought a new car (well new for me) and paid cash for it so still no car payments for me ;D. Oh and yes I got my tax return in LOL.

[george53]

Moanin Guys! Sorry I missed ya yesterday, but I guess I forgot in all my excitement! Sorry ta hear yer still bein bothered by yer back Olskoo
Hope yer back to normal soon!. And Marc, a WATER cooler processor??? do it got a Superchaerger to? OOP, well I guess FOUR BLOWERS equal ONE supercharger!!! Man It sure sounds mean!!! Since I missed yestiddy, I gotta add it in anyway, so's we got 309 days left!

[olskoolrodder]

Thanks,Bro . No change in it though...wake up feeling fine,no pain,no tenderness or stiffness,and ready to jump out and catch up on the chores,and get 2010's first bike ride in...then I get outta bed and that goes to crud as I realise it's just as bad as the day before,LOL!

No fresh white stuff,but cold as crap anyways. Izit time for Spring yet??? ;D

[MoparMarc68]

Yep, water cooling, its fairly new and very cool. Here is a pic of the liquid cooling setup that I am getting in my computer:
Hosted on Fotki
The part on the left is like a mini radiator with the fan mounted directly to it with a built-in pump. The part on the right mounts directly on the CPU like a heat-sink would.

In the near future I want to upgrade the liquid cooling to something like this:

And this is the case that I am getting all the goodies installed in:

Have a good day guys.

;DWon one of my "Grail Kits" on Evilbay a few hours ago (after being outbid on a few over the last 2-3 years) ;D


:'(Heard/felt a "popping" (think-like popping yer knuckles) in the lower back while walking (as in,walking normally,not very far,not carrying anything but a Nintendo DS handheld game),and walking has since been challenging,sitting/standing/laying in the same position for more than 15 minutes or so feels like someone's grinding the area with an iron boot.

This most likely isn't all that related to other issues I been dealing with-I've NEVER had lower back probs-but I'll be seeing the Doc this week anyways,and for the meantime (at least this time,LOL) I have enough sense to laze around till then,and I have a bottomless supply of prescribed pain meds anyways.

Looks like mild-by-recent-standards winter weather this week coming,but the "Cheif" weather dude said "Huge light at the end of this week's tunnel!" ;D

[george53]

Ol skoo, with MY luck that light is an oncoming TRAIN!!!! Man I mus REALLY be slackin! This weekend was the MOOK! I got to work the Model Car Show at the Deeetroit Auto Rama,And MAN waz THAT cool!!!
I din't even really walk around the show an take it in! I was enjoyin the Models TOOO much!! You guys should see how YOUNG some of those kids are, and building KILLER lookin Models!!! I hope this bodes WELL for the hobby, There were WHOLE FAMILIES, Dad's Moms, and KIDS entering models!!! It was GREAT!!!! 307 left now guys.

[olskoolrodder]

Sounds like you had a blast,my friend! ;D ;D ;D
I've never been to a show,but once alla this legal crap is over and I'm "officially" disabled,I wanna find and attend one

Thta sounds GREAT for the hobby! Encourage em any chance ya gits,Bro!

Well,back's worse,looks like next week for a Doc visit,and can barely walk around today...I saw a church sign this morning that had a familier message/quote on it..."What a man sows,that shall he reap also..."-man,I sure hope it ain't the beginning of Harvest Time for me with all the crap I done in the past

[george53]

Yeah, it really WAS great! I actually enjoyed myself MORE workin the show, than walkin around lookin at the AutoRama itself! The talent on those tables was EXCEPTIONAL!!! Yeah, I do think that model car modeling is gonna be around for a while to come if these kids are any indication! I had a BLAST!!! Hope your back gets better for you, but if you can get you some of them GOOD pills, they'll jus knock yer butt out, an you'll jus SLEEP thru it! Hopefully you'll wake up before NEXT year,caz there's only 306 days left!!!!

[olskoolrodder]

LOL! 306///weird,it doesn't sound so much

I actually have a bottomless prescription for some "GOOD' pills,I just try to normally avoid em. Popped one last night and actually slept thru the night. Still the same today,but ya knows what? Spirits aren't low,and actually haven't been trhoughout this latest back issue (cept maybe that first day)-partly because of the boards and e-friends (like you,my friend) always having a kind word of encouragement,and partly because I been going crazy on Ebay (well...compared to normal,LOL!) buying up kits/bits/and vid games ;D

I'm gunna try and get a couple hours in at the bench today..I mean,I'll be sitting/laying on the couch hurting,why not get a little done since I'm gunna hurt any-dang-ways ;D

[olskoolrodder]

But as fer right now (in the next 15 minutes or so),gunna go take a nice,meds-assisted nap

[olskoolrodder]

Got a little done on the '39 SD...not as much as I'd have liked,but I ain't complaining ;D

Have a grand eve,all!
