Congratulations bro. I'm proud of you, and you're welcome. I'm always wishing the best for you and others.;)
 
Congrats @Brandon!

It's been pretty chilly here in the morning the past few days. 43 this morning!

UPS just dropped off my new trackball: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0043T7FXE/ref=oh_details_o04_s00_i00

Its' going to take a little bit of getting used to but at least now my hand isn't always hitting my second screen as it was with the mouse.

I like the way it handles - It'll take a bit to get fine grained control of my thumb but I'm always navigating around pretty decently.

Wow, I have almost the same, I love it, b/c I don't have much space to move a mouse on my desk! ;)

To get fine grain control over the trackball will get easier, the longer you use it. Usually it just takes a few minutes or hours to get used to. Remember that you can change settings in the control panel (like pointer speed / acceleration, etc.)

The only thing you can't use it for is quick action games (b/c precision is a problem when you're in a hurry), but you said you're not a gamer, so that shouldn't be a problem! ;)

For gaming, I use a PS-style-controller when possible (but this is also far less precise than a mouse). When I play with a trackball, I'm usually a bad sport in high-speed action games! ;)
 
Good movie on BET later, Streets at 10 PM CST.

I'll be watching it. Good morning ya'll
 
What a day, Canada post just sucks, was delivered a package wasn't mine, I didn't check to see if it was mine, and signed for it. I won't be doing that again. I was outside waiting on another package so I thought it was them that had called me to see if anyone was home, turned out it was another place that had the package for our house that had called. Then she comes back takes the package but didn't pick up the mail she gave me, until I came out with it and handed it to her.. She then did have mail that was for our address. Both Canada post and another company showed up at the same time to delivering this mail, was in a confusion state since none of this mail was for me personally.

What kind of package did they deliver? That's so ridiculous. Woke up this morning with
heart burn and a stomach ache. Not a good morning so far. But at least, my daughter is here.

Ahh. Did you tell them to go next door? When we get our neighbors mail, we give it them/put it in their box.

How much do you think they get paid? Last I heard they don't get paid too much more than the minimum wage.
