It's conflicting with my mini road trip to Kansas, but I will figure something out. _________________ Failure is just success rounded down.

You say that while living in Oklahoma =P
I've got to go see my uncle over the weekend to help him out with some stuff. I'll probably end up going Sunday and staying through Monday. _________________ Failure is just success rounded down.

I gotta say Oklahoma is a good deal better than Kansas. Sorry, but the majority of it is grass. Wichita isn't what I'd call a metro area, and Kansas City is more in Missouri than it is in Kansas. Again, sorry Nickola... though I will admit they have a few really good paintball fields. The one in Hutchinson is a personal favorite. _________________ Advocating the end of the world since July 1995.

I may cut out early from the lan to visit my grandmother. Or I may be late to the lan to visit my grandmother. Or I may be at my grandmother's this weekend. _________________ Blargle Flarg Bergah Merg

I totally disagree. I would not want to live anywhere else. Central to everything, easy to travel anywhere, good work ethic, good income to cost of living ratio, great people and we are really building a great city in OKC for the past several years. _________________ Technology Unlimited * www.techunl.net * (405) 773-6037 * [email protected]

I'm with Mike. I mostly like the direction that Oklahoma City is headed. There are those things I dislike and those I like a lot.
For instance, I'm glad we passed maps again. I'm a bicyclist and am excited to see that the trails around OKC are going to be extended and enhanced. We need more trails to help keep bicyclists off the busy roads in OKC. People in OKC do not know how drive around bicycles, and they often forget that a bicyclist has an equal right to the road as they do. More trails mean less headache for drivers and bicyclists alike. _________________ Blargle Flarg Bergah Merg

I agree as well.
Though on Dan's point. There are also a lot of bicyclists that don't know how to share the road with cars. I'm quite tired of seeing people riding against traffic, it's utterly stupid for several reasons. The main one being that when someone is doing that, you can't see them at all if there's another car in front of you. The other being that the same right of way laws apply to bikes, riding against traffic is just as illegal as driving against traffic.
Unfortunately it doesn't seem to be enforced at all.

From experience living in the healthiest city in America where there are equal number of bikes to cars on the road, it's an interesting experience. Sometimes you coexist well but often it is awkward because of things like no bike turn lanes and they have to take some liberties.
Aside from all of that, try to excuse my hating on Oklahoma. Really I would say the majority of my gripe is from the constant 200% humidity. I really really miss the dry air in Colorado.
EDIT: And no Fry's or MicroCenter or PC Club here WTF!?!? _________________ Failure is just success rounded down.

We had a PC Club over on North May. It closed down a couple of years ago I think.
Just call Technology Unlimited, we can get anything they had, usually in a day if we don't already have it.

Technology Unlimited was on par with Dell when I ordered from them. Only a hair more than Newegg, but that included preassembly.
