I do the 25k ones faster then I do the 500s! The 500s have looooong frames.

You're staying in the Volunteer state, right? There's a state charter that forbids leaving. :)

Ah, if you could make one WU a day per system, that would be Godly. Maybe Conroe will be able to take up such a task? :-k

Yeah its a small move only like 2 blocks, we just cant deal with our landloard anymore, he is a total jackass. He wont do anything we have asked since the day we moved in, so were moving out :) its a smaller town house than what we have but in much much better condition and its just plain nicer than where we live.

It's good to hear that you're getting away from him then. Our last landlord was very nice to us. Heck, my girlfriend's mother also rented a house from him. However, right after we moved, his nephew took over and started raising the rent on her mom and generally acting like he wanted her gone. Well, he got his way, but she's in a better house now. Thankfully, not ours. :) If you get the chance, I would recommend buying your own house one day. There's nothing like having a leak or major problem and having to pay for it yourself. :)

Only two more days to go. I finished quite a few this month, but I'm having to cut down the number of hours. I had alot of computers folding 24/7 at one time and now we have a 300+ utility bill. My girlfriend literally laid a brick... right up side my head. :) But I will keep folding, but at a diminished capacity.
