New tires + a hearing aid


So last night was pretty interesting. On the way home I realized I had a flat tire, but had the radio up for so long in traffic I didn’t see when it happend. Pretty sure I was driving on my rim for about 15 miles. Always nice to turn the radio and hear a thumping sound coming from the front of the car. *hah* so yea i ran over a bolt that riped a huge hole in my tire, even saw the metal poking through from the steel-belt. Of course just what i needed, to buy 4 new tires this morning.. at least it’s payday tomorrow :)

On the flipside, check out what happend later that night. So I’m working on a few people computers for side ca$h, one of which a dad’s co-worker. So i plug it in last night, nothing out of the ordinary, and all of a sudden a huge loud pop came out of the power-supply. Of course my head was right next to it while i was plugging in cables. The bastard blew a transformer right off the board, and it was so loud it knocked me to the ground in shock. I was dizzy for about a minute until I realized what the hell just happened to me. After a little work I got it up and running (good ole windows 98) and realized that this was the same socket 370 pentium 500mhz computer i worked on 4 years ago. Want to take a guess how old the virus definitions were? Yea try Aug 2000. I did use the opportunity to use the legacy version of IE to test my sites and I’m glad to say it parses the CSS and div layers almost perfectly. I expected the worse and to my supprise, M$ came through..
