    And that 'trial' of EZD3 is now showing up.  And to install this trial with the kits, it would take almost 16 G of data downloaded. 

    Who's idea was it to show me a free trial for a product I already own?

    Stoopid, stoopid, stooooopid I tell ya.

    My microwave oven has been acting up. No longer spinning and seems to have a mind of its own as to whether it's going to get hot.
    So I brought my even older one out of storage and cleaned it up. It was ~ 6 months old and gently used before going into the shed, so it cleaned up well. Works like a charm. Most noticeable difference? The beeper stops beeping when you open the door.

    I wish I could have done that with my 2005 Odessey (found a spare in storage that still works).

    Last Month I needed new brakes, replacement of a door latch that was faulty and causing random signal that the door was open when it was not, replacement of drivers side seat belt receptacle that was saying seat belt was not connected when it was. And I added a rodent repeller (runs 24/7 but will never drain the battery uless the car sat undrivern for a few months or so). That was one pretty penny.

    Today I picked up the car for new tires, virtually overhauled suspension (the car was making metal on metal creaking sounds when driven) rack and pinion was starting to go, leaky oil pan.

    I have a philosophy about a fully  paid for car. If the repairs in a year exceed what would be equivalent to a new car payment (of a like vehicle) then it's time to dump it and get a new car.

    I'm a about a grand away from that limit.

    I have 190k miles on the car and it's suggested to replace the timing belt at 200K. At my current rate of 'scheduled' driving I'll hit 200K in 27 months or so.

    Needless to say, those two expenses have put a serious dent in any major musical purchases for the next month or two.

    I seem to remember that when I was a member of Taxi (now there is a money pit) I had Master Writer and quite liked it. Back then it was a stand alone program.

    Yup.
