With a network outage on Friday night at my office, and who knows how late I'll be up... it's VERY unlikely I'll make it to the Towson breakfast. Sorry!

Sucks when they coincide - it happens too often... that 3rd Saturday in the month thing bites for me!

Our network outages are almost always the Friday night following the second Tuesday of the month. This is because the second Tuesday of the month is "Patch Tuesday" for Microsoft to release new security updates. We usually schedule our outage for the Friday night after that, to update all of our servers. As it obviously turns out, the Saturday after the 2nd Tuesday of the month is very often the 3rd Saturday of the month! Aaaaaaah!

2001 Hard-Top. We are looking at getting something new or pre-owned either later this year or next year...probably a small SUV. Something more kid friendly with more space.

Jeremy,

It's looking like I won't be at this breakfast, but if I am, I'll be more than happy to help you out. I keep on meaning to go and take pics of my 12v/iPod setup!

If I'm not at the breakfast, PM me, and we can set something up.

Supplies you'll need to do it if I'm around:
- Littelfuse Add-A-Circuit
- 12v accessory cigarrette lighter style outlet

The other parts/tools you need I have. The 12v outlet you can get at any auto parts store. The Littelfuse I only found at Pep Boys and AutoZone. Your milage may vary!

-Paul!

Reading about all this flying ice, I don't think I'm willing to drive MINI all the way to Towson from here. Might come in the truck...

Not a bad idea, if you ask me...

I do, not hard... Cept it may be too cold... If you're willing to follow my guidance while I keep my mitts on, then probably.

Nope, but changing it from the 3rd Saturday of the month to the 2nd Saturday of the month would help me.

There would still be a few conflicts (if the 1st of the month was on Sunday, Monday or Tuesday), but less than there is now (1st of the month on Wednesday, Thursday, Friday or Saturday).

Of course, the 1st Saturday or 4th Saturday of the month would be ideal.

5th!

As for myself, my attendance tomorrow will depend on how late I'm up gaming tonight. If I'm up until 4am like most nights this week, I probably won't make it.

Same deal, except you know where I live. Come over whenever and I'll let you borrow the tools.

Of course, if I had an anthracite headliner, I'd probably do all of that for you for free...

Anyone want to play a little game called 'Which dosn't belong'. The rules are simple, guess which object in the following images dosn't belong in its surroundings.
