LVB Tracker 21 days till Dayton Hamvention

YES YES YES all them 1080 little white wires are cut, stripped and crimped.

It's 8:39pm.

While finishing up the prep for lcd cable assembly we're listening to the CAVS/Pistons game. They're playing up in Auburn Hills. Was a slow start... tied at the end of 1st quarter with the CAVS winning at the half. Now it sounds like Detroit is making a comeback... oh my. Also got the Indians game on TV in the background. They're playing Minnesota and it looks like it 3-1 Minneosta.. Oh My.. These are the things that keep my mind off of the insane boredom of cutting, stripping and crimping. This is the first time I've built this many (90). Most I built to date was 40 in the winter of 2008. I'm hoping these 90 will carry us thru the end of the year.

Sue and Barb are at the Aeros game. I hafta go pick them up... probably any time now. Barb was complaining about going at dinner. She doesn't like the noise.

8:47pm The Pistons have retaken the lead.

Going to do my email. Cut some heatshrink. Pick up the girls and hopefully get back in time to assemble the lcd cables.


09:50pm.

Here's everything ready for assembly. 1080 wires, 180 connector shells. Went upstairs to keep the doxies company and finish listening to the CAVS game. Sue and Barb are still at the game... and.... THE CAVS BEAT THE PISTONS! Now we can sit down and assemble. I wonder how the Indians are doing?

Just got home from picking up Sue and Barb from the Aero's ball game. They played a double header tonight with both games going into extra innings. Before that had a short video chat with Tom, K8CNN on Skype and got 20 lcd cables built. Would have been nice to get them all built tonite but you hafta have a life too!

Going to bed we are now 20 days till Dayton Hamvention!
