SECWA Convention?

Is anyone going to the secwa convention?  I imagine the gas prices will put a damper on the attendance.  I guess the show will start Monday and end on Tuesday?  For more information checkout secwa.com or you can save on gas and I will post some pictures (if I wake up on-time tomorrow)!

Owning a car wash

There are lots of signs that you own a car wash, but quarters all over the place is probably the most obvious.  You have a pocket full of quarters all the time.  You have some quarters on your garage floor, car floor and maybe even on the floor at home.  Or, maybe even in your shoes, which I found today.  (Well I thought it was funny.)

Not again!

It is official: this 5 way intersection in Wylam is way to confusing for people.  Another Stop sign was murdered.  Also, someone forgot their stereo (or they prefer a giant hole in there dash instead).

Louisiana Invasion!

I am not kidding: the Louisiana people are invading Alabama. 75% of the cars have a Louisiana tag.  Going the other way are Alabama tags going to help with at&t trailers and “Huffmaster Disaster Response Team”.  Just because this guy named Gustav is coming from Cuba to Louisiana.  He seems like a really bad guy.

Purchased a used MEI off ebay.com and it actually worked!

I purchased a MEI Mars AE 2631 D7 off ebay.com and received a D5 but everything worked fine.

I called Mars to ask them the difference between model number D7 and D5.  The tech was very helpful and actually knew off the top of his head what the answer was.  The D7 part denotes the bill stacker count at 700 bills, D5 500 bills.  So games-people-play-and-more (the ebay seller) just did not give me the correct bill stacker but it was a really good deal at $160.
