Was going to take the car today, but plans changed. Will have it tomorrow since the gamers will be here. Only have until 1 Nov to use up my coupons in the discount book we bought. Need to stop at some of those places tomorrow.

It's a three out of four day.
Got the last card to finish my Limited Edition Middle Earth CCG set!! Wheeeeeeeee!

My little cassette recorder works again! Seems I left the pause key on. Duh... However, Tom took it apart, cleaned its innards and fiddled with the speaker a bit to help stop it from shorting out. This is good.

The power supply for the scanner came.

However... the HP scanner is totally trashed. After checking it with the new power supply, I told Tom to go ahead and open it. He found all sorts of things that look wrong in there, so I'm guessing the circuit board is fried. Going to see if I can returned the gizmo for a credit on my CC.  I hope it can be done.

Also found the SCSI PCI card that will allow my old scanner to work with my current computer. New. it's 70 bucks.
