I know I know I know! But ya gotta let me get at least one payday between The Birthday Build and that new thing first, ok?! Gee! I'm a gotta get a copy Win10 Pro too! $199.99 !!!! On THIS Birthday Build money! I look at all that money, flowing so fast outta my bank card...and start in with Simon and Garfunkles 59th Street Bridge Song... Slow down ya move too fast! Got to make the mornin LAST! Just trippin down the cobblestones, look at the sights and feeling GROOVY! (I have wondered for 50 years now if THAT 59th Street Bridge was the one in old downtown Houston, Texas...that was unceremoniously torn out to make room for a new road connecting old and new Downtown. Hmmm? Time was right, weed was right cause it was so WRONG back then, and those two troubadors were indeed trippin the streets of ol Houston then too. HMMM!)
