    You could ask. Any true friends of mine would appreciate the humor of the situation. =^..^=
    If you'd like a serious answer to your request:
    1) demonstrate that you've read the manual
    2) demonstrate that you made some attempt to fix it.
    3) if you're going to ask about jams include the jam code.
    4) if you're going to ask about an error code include the error code.
    5) You are the person onsite. Only you can make observations.

      A while ago AcaDaCa use to belt out a couple of my favourite songs. Along with "Highway To Hell" , I didn't mind "Thunderstruck"(luv the guitar riff), You Shook Me All Night Long". I bought 3 lots of AC/DC "Back In Black" album series over the years and all three lots disappeared around party time.

      Long time ago now....

      I'm a lot quiter with country music these days. My wife and I have our favourite country music stars.
      I've instructed my wife to play a particular track "Friends in Low Places " from Garth Brookes at my funeral...
      There's one sentence in the final verse that goes: "da da da.. and you can kiss my @ss"...
      Follow that up with a Rock & Roll tribute from AC/DC "Highway to Hell" would be nice...
      Should freak my relies out quite a bit, if they even bother to turn up.

      .
      .
      .
      Don't tell anyone. The actual track I request my wife to play is Garth Brooks "The Dance"...
      Though the song is subject to change. I don't think I will be able to do a lot about my funeral final song choice in any case.....

                  Random music vids? Alrighty, how about this?
                  Youtube won't let me embed stuff for some reason, so I can only share the link. Still, that was one of tunes I thought was good while driving at night.

                    The truck eating bridge strikes again! Kind of a decent history of the thing in the sidebar, too.
                    Apparently this happens more often than I understood it to.

                      Aparently, at the hospital I work at, whenever I have to lay on the floor to do something to the bottom tray on a machine, it really freaks out the nurses who walk around the corner and see me. Ah, good times, good times.

                          Reminds when I use to do active training scenarios with the State Emergency Services (SES).

                          One of the guys in the SES was a left arm amputee. In live training sessions, he was often asked to volunteer as a causality victim. During one aircraft crash simulation exercises that I was active on, the amputee bloke was asked to lay next to an aircraft fuselage with his amputated arm under the aircraft to simulate a trapped limb. The arriving emergency services(ambulance,fire) would all freak-out believing that his arm was really trapped under the plane. A bit of tomato sauce splashed here and there around his amputated arm completed the realist effect. He said to me that some of the younger operatives would find the amputated arm simulation a bit too real and really worry about his situation.

                          Depending on the active exercise he would sometimes leave his prosthesis(fake) arm on to simulate a trapped arm, or sometime he leaves it off to simulate a severed arm.

                          The amputee guy always had a smile and joked with the operatives after the training exercise was over.

                                I have the cd and this is on repeat when making a quick run to the store or best is playing it at the drive through at the bank. See the lady teller start dancing to this and time to start going into the lobby and saying hello at least.
