Yes but this is a new super-super-computer!
(And I suspect it doesn't come with Windows 8 preinstalled)

Yes, it should be working by Thursday afternoon.
Or it might be Friday morning or next Sunday night.
It did work for a while yesterday, which was a bit unexpected.

Yeah, but can it run Crysis?
I'd rather be phishing!

So, I'm back on deck after completing the 2014 Camp Quality esCarpade!! This year I raised almost $11000 for Camp Quality (a charity that brings hope and optimism to children living with cancer and their families).
The first day of the trip was exceptionally rough, with some massive un-marked ruts and potholes... several vehicles were damaged, including Booger Mobile. Thankfully I was able to get it back on the road (after putting it on a hoist for a wheel alignment and cursory safety check), then it was a few days of chasing an intermittent fault - turns out it was fuel related... lolsigh. We did make it to the end of the event - eventually.
If you want to see a gazillion pictures of the event, and read about the misery, happiness and fun, then check out the Booger Mobile blog (link in my signature).
So, what did I miss around here?

No we just want to know if you can park it better than JSOP[^]
(Good work though, I've been following the Booger Mobile since you started building it, one of my favourite blogs)

Thanks!! There is quite a list of things to sort out before next year - mainly in the fuel department (additional filters/return lines/pumps etc).
I will also need to get it up on a hoist after a good clean and have it gone over with a fine-toothed comb to check for damage from the rut that the cursory check didn't find (it was getting a bit skatey on the way home)...

Pretty cool...way back machine.

There's a fine line between crazy and free spirited and it's usually a prescription.
I'm currently unsupervised, I know it freaks me out too but the possibilities are endless.

It's far superior to Win '95 -- animated shortcut icons? Win '95 didn't even get close to such advancements.
So it turns out that '95 was a "skip" version, like ME, Vasta, and Wait.
