Good morning everyone

Chilly start of the day here, going to be putting plastic up on the windows today in hopes that it helps while winter works its way here.

Taz, the manuals site worked fine for me, but I couldn't download it. I could only open it in a new tab of my browser. When I went to right-click the link and save it, it came up as a damaged file for me.

Morning guys, woke up to a light coating of snow on the cars, nothing major.
It sure is cold though.

How I saved it was by clicking the save icon (picture of a floppy disk) when the file opened up in Acrobat Reader. Right clicking didn't work for me either.

I guess I couldn't do it that way since it opened in the browser and not the reader.

I have Acrobat Pro and it opens in the browser itself and I have no save option on my Mac.

Wow. You mean there's actually an (as in "one") advantage to using Internet Exploder? Yikes.

I can email the pdf file to you. The 2000 Manual is 2.6 MB

I was just simply testing it out for you.

I have the original manual in the glove box

Thanks though!

Great find Taz... I found one a couple of weeks ago, went with my g/f to mtsu and printed it out so I have a hardbound, binder owners manual.

Not much going on here... waiting on warmer weather to wash my car,... darn Tennessean salted roads. My beautiful red car is now white.

Thought of washing it now, but the temp is only going to get to 24 today and that's enough to. Freeze my door shut.

Good day everyone!
I got some good news last Friday and it is "solidified" today. I will have a consistant pay check! I was told mid-November that my department was being outsourced.... Well, I have an offer to stay with the outsourcing company doing the same thing I do now for the same pay. This is a very good thing in a tough economy for I.T. workers.
I am still exploring my options (as I am not 100% I want to keep doing the same job), but at worst case, I have this offer and I'm taking it.
