It was an extremely tough week, but it ended with this exchange which made me smile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So my mom calls me said she wants a radio for her birthday.\n\nI said \"ok\", \n\nthen she said, \"the one I can put tape inside\".\n\nI am stunned at this point, so I said \"I don't think they sell those anymore.\"\n\nShe then said \"what do you listen on now then CD?\"\n\nI literly can't speak for a second.  \"Radios don't come with those anymore either\"\n\nSo she said \"just buy it at Radio Shack.\"\n\nI am more stunned.\n\nI told her \"Radio Shack closed years ago, I will get something for you on Amazon.  \"\n\nI then said \"I thought you want to come here for your birthday\"\n\nShe said yeah, \"can you send me money, just in case I want to eat something on the plane.\"\n\nThen I reminded her \"planes don't take cash anymore.\"  for context she doesn't have a credit card\n\nWe spoke some more and we will figure it out.\n\nAfter I hung up and my son comes in saying he heard all that, then asked me what Radio Shack was.\n\n<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
I had to laugh at what just happened, it made me feel good.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I just HAD to update my post.  A friend Ronzell actually fixed my 3D printer<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
First Good 3D Print where the XYZ are pretty clean.  Took over 2 years for it to print out a clean print.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Also he was interested in my CNC that is not even unpacked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For future reference it is a SainSmart Genmitsu CNC 3018-PRO.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
