Knee surgery…

5:37 pm on Thursday, August 7, 2003

I had an MRI of my knee last week and had the follow up with the doc today. Looks like I get to have Arthroscopic surgery on my right knee again. Doc suspected a torn medial meniscus and the MRI agreed. I had it done about 8 years ago so I know what I’m in for. A few days of pain a couple weeks of aching and then no more pain. At least for a few years.

Arnold for prez? No, you idiots!

Ok, Schwarzenegger has said he’s gonna run for gov of Kalifornia. Good for him. He can’t be any worse than what they’ve got out there. What I’m getting tired of are these idiots on TV comparing him to Reagan. On CNN this morning I heard one of their talking heads say ‘is the Whitehouse next?’. No! He can’t run for prez! Read your freakin’ Constitution, Article II, Section 1, folks. He is not a natural-born US citizen. He is ineligible. End of story.

I hope he does win. I know why others in the entertainment industry were trying to discourage his running. He leans right and they know he’s got a good chance at winning.

Fry’s. Gotta love ’em…

Went to my local Fry’s Electronics yesterday at lunch looking for a inexpensive car stereo for my new Defender 90. I saw one that had all the features I wanted. AM/FM, CD, and the important Aux input so I could plug in the iPod. It also had one really good feature, it was $75. I decided it was the one for me and I’d grab one to put in myself when I had the chance. I went to the stack of boxes and noticed that 1/2 of them were returns. Hmmm, not good. I noticed that those returns also had ‘Return to Vendor’ stickers on them. They should have never been back on the shelf. Good ol’ Fry’s, letting me know what I shouldn’t buy. The stickers were hilarious. They said things like ‘Doesn’t power up’, ‘volume doesn’t work’, etc. The best was one that read, and I quote, ‘Customer suggested I use it as a boat anchor’.

Guess what I didn’t buy yesterday.

If anyone has any suggestions on a cheap car stereo with a front Aux input, let me know.
