Long Hard months, ends with good toys

Its been a long couple of months, I work as a 911/Fire Emergency Dispatcher for the largest county in California. Fire season has recently came to an end, we have A LOT of grass fires during the summer, not to mention 8000sq miles of medical aids, off road rescues (we have a lot of ATV accidents and dumbsh*ts don't know where the are), pregnancies, CPRs, car accidents, river rescues, plane crashes, etc. and we help any of the 8 surrounding counties up to 5 miles no questions asked when asked. We also assist other counties across the country for grass fires (we are one of the most qualified fire departments for this type of incident). Anyways, things are starting to slow down after a hard 6 months. Enough tooting of my own horn, but I figured I'm gonna splurge on some toys for me and my car.

 

Bought a 32" LCD, a mac mini, wireless mouse, wireless keyboard, HP Jornada 728, a Datsun Hat, Datsun Patches, a G-nose, and a FG hood. I've got a couple more purchases coming up, but I'm trying to wait till after Christmas. I don't want this thread to come off as bragging, I'm just glad to be done with fire season and to have spent some money on me.

Very nice Tyson! I didn't know you were a "mac" person. I use to teach for Apple back in the 1980's.

 

How's the car coming along? Any recent pics?

Haha awesome Ernie. I love my macs, I also have a Powerbook G4, and a iMac G4. PC's have their place and I still use them for some programs (cad, etc.), but I don't like them for my daily use.

 

As for the car, we're buying a C-train and getting the garage cleared out. So I can start working on it at home. I might have some questions for you when I start painting if you don't mind, I've been reading about "the perfect panel" and they address fixing low points but don't say much on how to fix a high point without banging on the metal. I need to do some more reading on how to fix "high spots" though.

 

Thanks Ernie hope everything is going well with your fam.
