Guys,

If you try to get me in the next few days I am going to be hard to get ahold of. My home computer is dying...I think I am going to take it out back and shoot the damn thing. I am going to try and reinstall windows but if this does not work I will be without a computer for a little while. If you need to get me something then do it through email:[email protected]

how olds ur computer?

[Alcap26]

5 1/2 years old but got a new hard drive last year and I think it is just windows screwing up. going to try and reload and see if it helps. I won't be back on until tomorrow unless this works. (p3 540mhz I think 572mb ram) it is old but gets the job done for what we use it for...mainly just to email and cruise the internet.

try reformatting it. we had a similiar problem on our 2 yr old dell. we couldnt use microsoft word and some other programs. reformatted it and it worked fine. good luck

[Alcap26]

Completely reformatted it and it is a goner. I tried just reinstallin parts of windows...did not work...tried completely reformatting the hard drive...did not work...so now 1100 bucks after employee discount and rebates (thanks to my wife) will be going to dell for about a 1500 dollar system config. Guys I might not be ack on again until tomorrow so if you need me email but might not get until tomorrow.

I believe I'm a 'Pro Jock' with a dotted-line to the 'Gutter Gang', but I say let him in! :cool:

Guess what guys...

I got a job! Its just a part timer for now. I picked up the job since I'll have a light term in Apirl... so whats the first thing I do, head over the BST forum and take a look around... hehehe, I haven't even played in months.

[Alcap26]

Pete congrats on the job. CMkie I love the new avatar.

Looks like the new computer might be here tomorrow if UPS website is correct. I am looking forward to it. Haven't been able to post much or read things...don't like to do it at work because they monitor everything and it has gotten colder here so I like to stay in at night instead of walking to a neighbors house to use the computer.Hope everyone is having a great week!

[shoe295]

busy week for sure..gettin' PT (physical therapy=pain and torture) on my elbow because the medical practitioners need to generate income rather than fix what ails you...instead of just shooting me up with a marcaine/cortisone mix gotta get 8 sessions of PT and wear a Band-It and wrist brace to attempt to heal the tendonitis in my elbow...sigh...my expectation is 4 PT sessions then I demand the shot..not that I like needles its just that the snow has turned to large frozen puddles on the range down the street from home and the weather next week is supposed to approach the 40's which means I could be hittin' balls in 2 weeks..any idea how hard it is to sit and look at the new shafts Joe put in my irons but have no idea how they feel to hit? :mad: ...did see an ad for a new indoor/outdoor range yesterday tho so I think I be checking that out..ad stated that you hit off new "high tech" surfaces..translation may mean an updated astroturf mat like what they put down for new football stadiums...who knows...see ya in the chat room on sunday or monday

Pete congrats on the job. CMkie I love the new avatar.

thanks for the comment. everyone loves the avatar.

[chainsaw]

Sir, I take great offense at such a profane display. Your avatar is highly offensive :wink: Great job! I won't take a stroll down memory lane buuut it reminds me of some of the good old days. Man, the cocaine, boob job crowd in Dallas was such a great time.

Anywho, rain in the desert still sucks! The ring around the bathtub at Lake Mead is going to be gone in no time and we're supposed to be in a drought. Looks like no rematch this weekend. I really wanted to get some more time in with the Tour Concepts. I'm going to Dallas the first weekend in March and I have some serious rounds planned with my Uncle. I keep trying to corrupt him and get some import and tour gear but he's stuck in retail mode, poor guy. I did have him salivating over the pics of the X-tours though.

Pete, congrats on the job! A little change jingling in the pocket is a good thing. There is some awesome stuff coming out. I'm thinking about test driving one of the new Futura models. Those things look like they rock. Anyone know the MSRP on them?

Well guys I got out and played today one of those rounds that could have been a 76 or an 88. Ended up shooting 81 with I think 4 doubles and 2 birdies...lipped out a four foot eagle putt. That thing went about 300° around the hole and back out at me...oh well. It was cool here after we started the sun went behind the clouds and it was low 40's. Thank god for cart heaters and covers....I know pussy. I made I think 8 8-10 footers that were comebackers today...got hot. The nines are reversed in the winter and from 15-4 I was even par. Won 6 bucks and golf was only 25 bucks so it was a good day. Hope everyone else has had a good weekend so far.

Also bought a 6 iron King Cobra Forged SS just like my set that I can use for experiments with shafts or just as a range club. I do want to try the s400 shaft out...hoping a little more weight might bring the ball flight down.

Well guys since no one else is posting I guess I will just talk to myself. Played golf after work today in short sleeves for the front nine and on the back nine got out the windshirt. It was 60 when I teed off. Teed off around 4:00 and was done at 6:15. I shot 77...1 double, 4 bogeys, a birdie, and 12 pars. Was hitting a bunch of fairways and greens. Today was a great day but missed a couple of makeable putts. I ain't going to complain for February. Hope you guys are all doing good.
