After I caught up on my sleep this morning, I decided to put together the elliptical machine my dad and I picked up yesterday. I nearly died getting it into the house yesterday, but luckily, no death resulted. My dad pulled his shoulder muscle a week ago so could only lift with one hand. I was supposed to be "being careful" since my spleen could rupture. This puppy ways a few hundred pounds. It was in a box about 75" long. Once we dragged it basement door, things moved a little more quickly. It nearly ran me over at the bottom of stairs as it slid way to quickly for me to stop it. Anyway, once we took the arm-rail off the stairs, we got the box nestled snuggly onto the basement floor. The assembly of the beast was simple. Attach a few hand-rails, a screw here a screw there and you're done. I've tackled much worse. However, the much worse I've tackled didn't have sharp plastic. I decided to see how a potato feels like when it's skinned as I sliced about an inch of skin right off the top of my left index finger. Two bandaids were needed to cover that badboy up. It looked pretty ugly. A few minutes later I decided to slice my thumb on the exact same piece of plastic. Luckily this one wasn't as bad but i wasn't too happy. I finally finished about 30 minutes later and things worked great. It only cost me an index finger and thumb. Luckily the arcade assembly wasn't as painful.

Arcade updates made today.
