Try the extra hot vindaloo....Yumm! Cheap, there is a place on 2nd that has
all kinds of Christmas lights out front..they have a courtyard in the back
that is very nice.

Also a good one down stairs on 6th

The manger of my band lives almost across the street so we go there fairly
often.

I still hope to go to NYC.

I may just put the sys drive in an internal bracket and slap the cover over

it out. I appreciate the suggestions. Keep those cards and letters coming.

He doesn't use it much so I'm not sure it
will stand the test of time but it's a fix.
