Well, the lappy arrived today, and after running it once to see the results of the problem myself, I promptly began disassembling it. After having it disassembled as far as the instructions go, I found I was not yet at my problem. As it seemed the backlight only came on when the inverter power cord was bent a certain way, but in order to get a better look at it, I had to take the back cover off the display. This proved difficult as I only had a crappy set of Allen key wrenches and the one I needed was the smallest, but using much force and a set of pliers for grip, I was able to get display cover off. There are two wires broken in the power inverter cable. They were just snapped off when I saw them, but I've since unsheathed them in preparation for splicing.

I have since lent the LCD portion to Steve who had volunteered to resolder the two broken cables and put some heat shrink tubing on them. Thanks Steve! (who doesn't read this)

w00t! After buying one PowerBook G3 and reselling it for $50 profit, I found this wonder of a deal that I plan to keep. It's an Apple iBook G3 800mhz with 640MB RAM, 30GB hard drive, and included AirPort card with Mac OSX (10.4.8) and Mac OS 9.2.2 installed. It does come with one issue: the back-light goes out after the lid is opened to about a 20 degree angle and beyond. I'm hoping this is an easy fix, otherwise I'll be tied down to an external monitor. But even with the issue, it was bought at an excellent price.

My pirate name is:
Dread Pirate Rackham
Like the famous Dread Pirate Roberts, you have a keen head for how to make a profit. You have the good fortune of having a good name, since Rackham (pronounced RACKem, not rack-ham) is one of the coolest sounding surnames for a pirate. Arr!

w00t!
And as proof she said yes, here's a crappy picture of her hand wearing aforementioned ring. Though, being as it is, this photo is probably not capable of really proving anything.

Knowing that it is impossible that there are people out this world that still don't have facebook, I took the liberity of adding most but not all of Jordan's photos into altoidbox.com's photo gallery. Leaving out repeats etc. Giving us 70 pictures from two cameras.
10.24.06 10:51
You may find my pics on facebook. I refuse to use Yahoo photo uploading.

No, the Borg operate in a collective conscious and seek add other beings to their collective. We are the BOTS, we operate in a single form but speak our message in the plural, and seek to infiltrate and make nuisance of ourselves onto other operating systems. Life on the internet, as you well know it, is over. Your computer will soon adapt to service us. Resistance is futile.

Are you the Borg?

Hmm. A bot posted a couple comments on the pirate name post with porn links, but have since been deleted. Perhaps I ought to try my trick on them as well. Though I'm not entirely convinced what I did has actually worked...
09.26.06 10:25
oooh. I guess I left a much too strange link on that one two down. Ok, I am not so angry now. Maybe your new idea will work on these BOTS.
09.26.06 10:23
EH!!! Wait a gosh darn milli-second!! I can't leave strange links anymore!! These stoopid BOTS ruin it for everyone!!
09.26.06 10:19
But what if it's not BOTS? What if it's just somebody making nonsense posts and leaving strange links for their sites??

So all this e-mail i've been receiving is from actual fans?!? WOW! I've just been marking it all as SPAM! I guess I will click on those links next time...

Jordan
that would indeed rock dude then you would be in demand because people would have to get a login
09.17.06 20:35
Joey
Hmm. Yeah. Never seen that happen before. Oddly enough, there were only three links in all of those. I figure when you spam something its to advertise. But, oh well. I might or might not get rid of them. If they continue with any frequency, then I might have to change how the Jibber Jabber works. Maybe require registration or some way to log in. I don't know.
09.17.06 16:19
wow spammers have taken over the jibber jabber! It's on like donkey kong!.

The origins of the kittens = poptarts t-shirt Steve got me. Only took all morning to read through comics until I got to one referencing it. w00t! It continues for several comics beyond that one.

Alright, since I can't really think of any other HomeStar Quotes I shall leave it at best, and in all actuality, the one below is just sorta a quote, not that I am quoting anything or anyone...something
08.07.06 13:15
Hooooome Staaarrr is running, a long. Watch out HomeStar it's Strong Bad!
08.07.06 13:11
Joey, you and Ally go together like two breads in a biscuit, yes two breads in a biscuit! I'm going to make a T-shirt with that. No wait! You and Ally are like a bowl full of mayonnaise. You can be the bowl and Ally can be the mayonnaise cause she's as smart as peanuts. We can make that T-shirt as well.
06.26.06 15:21
No, I've been posting on Joey's website so much, that I can now post telepathically, or at least without any hands.
06.26.06 13:44

Joey did you know your site could do that, or did you give it AI and it will eventually take over the Internet and T3 will come true AAAAHHHHHH!!!!
