April 2008 Archives

I'm currently in the middle of purchasing a new townhouse. Comcast doesn't provide any advanced services there, so I'm going to with an AT&T bundle.
AT&T Advanced TV (Dish Network) requires either a $49.95 installation fee or a 24 month contract with a $10/mo ETF. Since Advanced TV (U-Verse) is coming there soon, its going to be cheaper to pay the $50 activation fee than to pay the ETF!

• My speech therapist in high school son Kenneth passed away on April 26th. He's in a much better place now.
• My fiance's father had a stroke the other day. I hope things go alright with him. Don is a good man, one of the few this world has. Shelley's mom called me earlier tonight and told me.
• I'm currently sick with something that is making my throat really irritated.

'Nuff Said

So, I'm buying a townhouse/condo/single-family-home in Marietta to live in for the next few years. Price range is $50,000 - $80,000, and property has to be able to get a mortgage insured by FHA.

I'm hoping to close by end of May assuming everything works out well. If you want to help out, let me know! I'm willing to rent out the second bedroom for $400.00/mo inclusive to anyone willing to do so.

For a new laptop.

My requirements are simple:

• 15.4" display


• 1680x1050 resolution or better


• Intel Core 2 Duo T8300 or better


• NVIDIA Geforce 8000-series


• Blu-ray ROM, DVD+/-RW


• Vista 64-bit, 32-bit is okay if there


• Bluetooth


• Webcam
