Well this is a posting to let people know I am back online...Most who know me well will have heard just prior to the Norlands event I lost my computers Modem, well nightmare after night mare insued and finally other problems where found in our primary computer, so Now we have our secondary computer up online and  can get out and get info and communicate with others, only drawback is that it is slow but that only effects me, but I am just happy to have phone service where I live......openly I have to say to Tom Backus, if you were wondering why I never got to you thats why.....and I didnt have your phone number that I could find, drop me an e-mail and I have some things I would like to discuss....maybe even kick it old school and talk on the phone.....I fear that with the tech problems I may have missed some ops for new recruits but we are up now and my eye is out....Mike johnson give me a call sometime if your idea you had earlier is still clattering around in your head....and does anybody know how to soder a power coupling to the motherboard of a laptop so that the power will charge the battery? and fix a modem.......
