Hi Guys:
Due to problems beyond my control, I have been unable to post here. Then mysteriously today, I get an email notifyin me that about a topic response. I check it out, and all of a sudden, I'm able to log on.
Earlier this year, we went thru a series of computer crashes, wiping out our entire home network (we had 3 computers here in Uggville). Not only was the network wiped out, so were ALL of the computers.
Of the 3, I was only able to get 1 back up and running, sorta. Mine, which was/is down in the dungeon (basement). Since stairs and I AREN'T the best of friends, My only computer time was briefly each AM, while letting dogs out. It turned out that Maynard (my son) was the reason for the crashes, as he kept going to some game sites (on the sly, against my wishes), which allowed some nar do wells access to our stuff.
We have since got my wife a NEW computer (hers was totally burnt), and I now do regular back ups on to my 2nd HD. Maynard was issued a laptop thru school, and if they catch him going to those sites, they take it away. Our home network is STILL down, but someday I hope to get it back up.
Many things have happened here in Uggville since my last contact, some not to good
, and we may HAVE to get rid of the Frog , but while I still have it, I want to make it better. I put a new top on the cab, but the bows are bent a bit. How much for a new set (and where do ya get em), or should I just try and straighten the old ones?
TIA

PS: I hope the contact stays open.

YAY! Ya know, it's really somethin, the Frog gets better mileage than my Durango. 
Our main project is still the Beast (WC 53), but the Frog is still there. I LOVE drivin it around with all the morons on the road, and maybe will take it for a cruise tonight. 
Well, it's up again, and this time it's bionic. 
I'll have em redo after the new year. Why can't people do a job right the 1st time? 
We were supposed to have the Beast all painted last August, but due to problems with Maynard, it didn't happen. The kid went cryin to his Mom because I had him sanding stuff while I did other work (remember, I'm VERY limited in what I can do). He tells her he can't understand why I'm having him do it when I can do it so much better than him. Hell, I've got over 40 years experience on him. ![[thumbzup]](https://www.steelsoldiers.com/images/smilies/icon_smile_thumzup.gif "Thumbs Up [thumbzup]"){kind=icon}
