checking it twice....

[sirloinofbeef001]

I built all my LE's and I finally got around to mounting the last few in boxes. I ran them in test mode for one final check and one of them didn't work! So back outta the box it came. I looked everything over well(so I thought) when I asked my lil helper to look at all the joints. She said, this one isn't soldered..I coudnt see it with my naked eye so I got my mag glass and lo and behold there was an unsoldered joint. The moral is, do what Santa says(checkin it twice)..And get some glasses old man..lol.

[chrisatpsu]

[sirloinofbeef001]

Yea, gettin old sucks, but sure beats the long dirt nap.

[sirloinofbeef001]

Long dirt nap! Not ready for that..that's funny...lol..

The eye sight getting bad.  I bought bi focals.  It is my hearing.  I can not hear the beeps that phones and watches make if it that high pitch sounds.  Someone whisper to me?  Forget it.  I can not hear a whisper to save my life.  Maybe R.J. can make me a Lynx hearing aid kit.  LOL!

I must be doing not too bad...

I have a Ecodrive watch that has a serial number in really really fineprint under the "VI" (the roman numeral 6)  and when my wife and i got it about 5 years ago, i read the serial number to the jeweler. He responded "there's no way, you can read that!" and pulled out a jeweler magnifying glass and read the same number I just gave him.

Every once in awhile, i keep checking that serial number to make sure I can still read it. not bad for being in my 30's

[sirloinofbeef001]

I'm sure you see good now, but wait til the 40's hit lol..it'll all change. I can barely read my paycheck...lol

[jnealand]

Paycheck?  What paycheck?  My social security goes straight to the bank.  LOL.  And I got my first glasses around 45 and it has been going downhill ever since although not as bad as the hearing.

[chrisatpsu]

now you know why your Social security check goes straight to the bank.  they're trying to keep seniors off the roads     lol  j/k

[sirloinofbeef001]

Aw heck man, that's why god made glasses so I can see who I'm cutting off when I'm driving..
