Way to go, Llash!
Congrats, Pov. It sounds like this might be your first house. Wait'll you do your taxes next year. Woo hoo! Even at today's lower interest rates, it's still a nice chunk of change to deduct.

And *I* may have met a new member to the group yesterday.
Turns out he's a BIG Legion fan, and he didn't know about the LMBP.
So I'm threatening ....... errrrrrr *ENCOURAGING* him to stop by and check us out!! :-D

My second story was just published in SHOW AND TELL # 2. (I posted a few pages of it here some weeks ago.) We -- the Comics Creators Network -- debuted it at the Planet Con here in Kansas City on March 27-28. I got in for free and got to sit behind the table for a change! There was also an article in THE KANSAS CITY STAR on Wednesday, profiling the CCN at one of the general meetings, complete with pics. I didn't make the meeting because I had to work (grumble! grumble!), but it's great that we're getting that kind of exposure. I also got to shake hands with Marv Wolfman and embarrass myself in front of him. He had some of his old scripts for sale for $15. I almost bought NIGHT FORCE # 3, but only had $12 on me!

And even more good news!!!
I'm BAAAAAAACK!!!!!
(Okay, so THAT's not necessarily great news, but tough!!)
Anyway, my hot water faucet on my shower broke. So I picked up a new package to install. And the $65 was kinda cheap compared to the rest of the faucet/shower head packages they had on display!!!
Anyway, I got home, had to rip two holes in the wall in the garage to find access to the offending area. I finally called my uncle. With his help, we ripped a third hole in the wall. :-D (This just keeps gettin' better and better, doesn't it???)
Anyway, Uncle Fred said that the old hardware is hooked up to copper pipes, and the only way to properly install the new stuff is to have a plumber come in and "sweat it" in. (I think that's slang for "welding copper.")
So, he does a little work on the inside. We make two trips to Lowes to get tools and other hardware to take the damned handle off. Uncle Fred looks at the little device he pulled out, decided it hust needed a new washer and a new bearing, so we went BACK to Lowes (my fourth trip there in about three hours). The cost was about $1.98. (Well, that doesn't include $30 for tools and various other things that I didn't have at the time.) So I can return the faucet hardware I don't need.
I now have holes in my wall that will be covered with plywood and labelled as "ACCESS PANELS" so the next owners won't have to go through what I went through.
Uncle Fred has enough on me now to give me a hard time for a month.
Hmmmmmmm ........
My good news?
I've got a great uncle!!!!!!
I've got access panels!!!!!!
I've got new tools!!!!!!!!!!
I've got a shower that works!!!!!!!!!
I've had a loooooong hot shower!!!!!!!!!
I got the shower fixed for a little bit of nothing!!!!!
(And it only took three hours!! :-D )
Oh .........
and my favorite new song just made #1 on the Top 10 at 10.
Today was a good day!!!
*HUGZ*
Take care people!!!!!

Well, after a pretty rough car accident, things are turning around for me! The other person’s insurance company is paying for everything, and I’m getting more money than I hoped for, for the car (which was totaled).
Even better, I just leased a new car for myself, and it’s the first ‘nice’ new car I’ve ever had! It’s a 2005 Impala, and it’s pretty damn cool! I’m not really a big car person myself, but it’s a pretty hot looking car!
I get it tonight!

Cool! The new Impalas are pretty sweet. I thought for sure you'd go with a Chevy Cobalt...

Thanks Semi . I was a little sore for a few days, but I’m OK. I think it was more the stress than anything, but that’s all going away now. I appreciate the sentiment! Lou, I was really considering the Chevy Cobalt (they’re hella-cool!). But the Impala’s looked really nice, and since I’m now a young man with money for the first time in my life, I went with one of those. Maybe a Cobalt next time?

So, Mr. Cobalt Kid, now that you have reliable transportation, can we count on you to make the cross-country trip in July to San Diego?

I get it tonight! YAY! I love the new Impala's! I was seriously considering either an Impala or one of the new-model Celica's-- with the cute little hood-scoop --before I settled on my practical Mazda. :rolleyes: So now YOU get to chauffeur MY ass around, right???

You talking about earth-quakes, Pov? They're not usually anything to worry about.
