    What no one saw here is that right after the pic was taken Buckeye was dragged away wearing one of those funny white jackets..
    You know the type..
    48 jacket with the 64 sleeves that tie in the back!

    Damn, I found a pic of him!

    Dang...I'm still at work for 4 more hours, then s 30 min drive home before I can think about going out to dinner...and I couldn't do at work if I wanted to cause camera's are not allowed

    Well, if we're given the amount of time we had for the drive...it shouldn't be any issue

    Nice pics everyone...still waiting for a good happy face, I'll show you one later

    Okay got off work well after midnight. Didn't think I was gonna make it. Rushed home, no time to remove pot from system from benching earlier today. I just removed everything and took motherboard with me. I don't have LN2 gear yet. I do LN2 sessions with RunMc and after midnight is far to late to disturb him. So I grabbed my acetone, Dice, measuring cup I use to pour and Ice Cream scoop I use to drop pellets and ran off to TGI Fridays since they are open til 2 a. m.

    I had a very odd lunch today.
    This a very nice comfy restaurant in the centre of the small city I live in. These people have no idea what's going to happen in a couple of minutes.



    I will skip the unpacking part if you don't mind. Gotta say I went there well prepared, not with just a pot and a thermos, but also a screwdriver to fix any hardware issues and a keyboard for possible software troubles or overclocking!

    This is a bit staged, but personally I think it is hilarious!



    Sorry you cannot see smilies on these plates too well, my photographer was a noob. One is happy (the one on the left, me in case I win), one is unhappy (the one on the right, me in case I lose). Guess I don't even have to point at XS?

    Took a while, but I got a person working there to pose with me. Don't ask me if it was easy, cause it wasn't!

    The offer meets the demand!
