Disagree away Pete, I don't learn much of anything from folk who always 
agree.

Slower replying than ever. I'm not only learning Widoz8 but trying to 
get back up to speed on Sketchup. Seems the ITs have been at it too, 
it's WAY harder to use than before. Of course it could be the dents in 
my head but . . .

A couple of the local guys and I are putting together a tire hammer and 
me being me I'm doing as much fitting and bug killing on the CADD screen 
rather than the shop floor. We have a nice stack of stock to choose from 
though some pieces charmingly cool they may be, might not be so 
workable. I am SOOOO glad I have this project to take my mind off the 
IFI badness, I love brainstorming.

This is the first time I've done CADD on a laptop and I'm not thrilled. 
I have a mouse hooked up but it's still a pain, the buttons aren't like 
I'm used to. So, I took it upstairs to my desk, larger monitor, regular 
keyboard and TV for background noise. Much better but Sketchup, (hold 
the fries) is different and it's still frustrating. <Sigh> I guess it's 
good for my brain. Any idea how much I say that to myself? Keeps me from 
getting a rifle out or taking a hammer to . . . oh . . . Let's see. . . 
this stupid laptop computer?

Ahhhh, just saying that made me feel better. <grin>
