3) used ohlins rear shock
4) the labor costs for an 848 motor implant into my dying S2R1000

Buy a Dell XPS13 Ultrabook.

Sell my current laptop to pay for it.

Spend nothing.

Win!

Actually, I would like a new smoker and to outfit the new bike with a few choice bits...Arrow CF Slip On tops the list.

The federal gov'ment deems me ineligible because I already have a bachelor's degree.

It doesn't seem to matter that I'm working part-time, going to school, and helping take care of things at my parents...  Oh, and I start volunteering at the local hospital soon, too...

I'm ineligible because I not a...   well, I'm not going to finish that sentence.

Why does shit cost always more than you have to spend on it? I know life's not fair (it shouldn't be...) but damn! It feels better the more I blame it all on the government. [laugh] It's their fault! [laugh]

what I want and what I need are two different things.

I want a new pair of Levi's.

What I need is to pay off the debt so I can have my passport back and have my surgery.

Levi's are gonna have to wait.

I need front and rear shocks and a tie rod end for the car so that I can get an alignment.

I also need a 1099 sent to me so that I can do may taxes and probably get a refund of about $700 or so. The 1099 is free.
