I'm Bound for Northglenn tonight... and Lakewood in the Morning...

I'll be riding to my Daughters place tonight, soon as I get off this weeks tour of duty at the hardware... We're gonna spend the night there, and then head over to the Motorcycle seat shop for our appointment at 9 tomorrow morning...

By early afternoon we should have a reworked passenger seat on the Raider... that will be juuuuuust a mite more comfortable for the person that has to sit back there...

Then... hoping for no rain... I'll roll that big two wheeler back north...

Starting to have an 'issue' with the charger for my air card... hmmm... electronics... sometimes ya just love what they can do for you... sometimes... ya'll wanna just fling the offending piece at a wall! :o)

I've got ... well I've lost count of the chargers around here... air card, laptop, camera, cell phones, ipod, shaver... even the tooth brush has a charger!... you'd think at least two of 'em would be alike... wouldn't you? ... so if one shelled on you... you could just pick up the other... and keep on workin'?

Not a chance... every damn one of 'em... is a different voltage... if not a whole different connection plug...

If that Jobs fella really wanted to do something useful... he would standardize electronic chargers! :o) talk about simplifyin' life... makes me quiver every time I reach in the drawer for the proper 'wire'... Dang thing looks like a box of snakes in there...

... and the stress of tryin' to remember which one goes with which is just plumb awful! :o)

I better get my gear ready to put in the car... no place on the Bike yet... and I gotta go sell some nuts an' bolts today... to pay for the new seat!

Take Good Care
Brian

Two words, fingernail polish. Put a dab of different color fingernail polish on each charger and what it belongs to. Also, wrap up each cord and use a twist tie, or better yet Velcro, the cord into it's own bundle. And no, this doesn't happen at my house either! :) Judy

I tape a note to each charger identifying what it charges.... wish I had started doing this years ago. ernie

both, good ideas... anything to slow down the confusion!

Verizon replaced the charger which was apparently the part with the gremlin....
