Got my car out of the shop today. At least I didn't forget how to drive it.

One weird thing is that the config options now show no text, though my iPod, radio and XM display fine. My clock is set wrong and I can't change the hour (but I can change the minutes). All the options under config show a >, but the option text itself isn't showing. Weird. Not sure if there's way to reset the unit, but since the battery was disconnected after the accident, maybe something needs to be re-updated?

Anyways, it was evening and great light to take pictures....I present the Blue Barchetta, with stripes!

Cool pics, angles on the photo work.

Actually, I do a lot of web and picture work, and could easily resize them with Photoshop (I have the full Adobe suite).

However, these are the days of high speed internet! And, since this site resizes them (though still fully downloads), I figure the high res versions are worth seeing

Do people actually still use dial up? I've been unpacking from moving and found my old 56k modem from many many years ago. Also my manual for ISDN.
