... I just wanted to say hello.

After a two month plus hiatus I'm back online. At the beginning of September our computer crashed big time. The first couple of days without a computer were tough, almost as hard as kicking cigarettes, but I survived. Jenny made me a deal. Build a second floor on our house, and, when finished, I could get a new computer. I finished two weeks ago. My new Gateway system arrived last Friday. The Windows XP thing is very slick. Confusing too, but slick.

I spent a lot of the summer going to antique shows & flea markets, and have lots of chips to trade. As soon as HP figures out how to connect their scanners to Windows XP I'll be offering some trades. Something about a new "driver". Jen tried to download it from HP's web site today & had some trouble. She is going to call them tomorrow. That should be... interesting.

I'm still collecting any & all chips from San Francisco. If anyone has any please send me an email. Again, I gots lots to trade.
