Yeah, sound is really quiet. I figured out what I did wrong and my next one should come out better.

Okay, found this on YouTube - absolutely hilarious! NSFW or kids.

Nintendo DS screen replacement

DO NOT - EVER - UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES - REPLACE A DS TOUCH SCREEN YOURSELF. Let me explain. 's DS' touch screen wasn't calibrating anymore, a known issue. Sadly it's out of warranty, so she found some replacement instructions, and we decided to move my touch screen to her DS. Sadly, while the instructions are rather easy to follow, the touch screens aren't really designed to be usable once removed. I might be able to get a new one to work, but at this point my DS' power and volume switches have broken off. Now I have to buy her a new DS (probably going to trade mine in and I'll take hers, even if it is pink).

Confused in Canada/Larkspur

This page confuses me. It's on the Life In Canada website, and the rest of the site seems to talk about moving to Canada. That's cool (pun intended). But then it highlights a Larkspur, Colorado home. Doesn't compare it to some equivalent home in Canada. Just the one in Colorado. My reaction: Huh??

I want a Bimmer (BMW car)!

My brother in law now has a BMW 328xi. I want. Very nice ride, AWD, remote control power windows, led-lit door handles, electronic ignition with auto-recharging key fob. Power everything. And, of course, the BMW logo. The only logo I treasure more is Apple's. Well, maybe in a couple years when the current car is paid off and we can pay down the credit cards. Maybe.

Ladies and Gentlemen, kiss your 4th amendment goodbye. If you leave or enter the country, any item that can store information, analog or digital, may be taken without cause or suspicion and kept without limit for no reason at all. On american soil no less. Looks like I won't be taking my laptops, phones, mp3 players or dvds with me. I guess just the clothes on my back and that's about it.
