Yes he has really been working on the economy and jobs.............Here in Wa 
there are virtually no loans so everything is at a stand still. Maybe he should 
give the banks even more funds to sit on. Fanny May here is foreclosing like 
mad there are none of the loan modifications the administration talks about. 
They even advertise them but when the 30 or more people I have known go there 
they just submit apps after apps. Maybe things are great in other areas they 
just are not here. We spent  a Trillion in last go around and it didn't do 
much/. 20 Mil for county to insulate houses they insulated 7 houses and hired 
14 people at a bargain of 20 Mil another 20 mil for state to do the same they 
managed to do 10 houses and hire 60 people.......15 people for 3 months at a 
time actually.I would think for 40 MIL they could tear that many down and 
buil;d brand new luxury homes.I don't expect the latest to do any better

Well, Obama after Bush was a dramatic improvement so I hope your new after 
distorted is also an improvement.  I just wonder if the problem might be 
related to buffering the audio/video stream.

I hope a few list folks remember me and my never ending case. I need a few 
suggestions, if for nothing else but my general psychological well-being 
about the way my problem has progressed, or rather digressed, as it were.

As you might recall, whenever I played a CD, DVD, downloaded music file, 
online video or recording, Internet radio site or .wav sound bite, after a 
short while I would get a sudden distortion of the music which sounded 
rather like a dragging phonograph record and/or a badly scratched vinyl 
recording. The distortion would soon stop but it always came back, on and 
off, throughout the entire length of the recording. I took the computer 
tower back to Best Buy where I bought it just nine short months ago in 
December 2010 and they eventually sent it off to the Geek Squad repair store 
in Louisville, KY where the Geek Agents replaced the motherboard and 
returned the computer to me yesterday. I thought all was well until I 
decided to play my all-time favorite version of “Yea, Alabama” (just to pump 
myself up for the big game Saturday) and discovered—my great horror that the 
distortion was STILL there. I take it as a good thing that I sold my Glock 
some time ago.

Now, this thing has turned into one deuce of a mind boggling morass. The 
Geek Cops tried replacing the sound card (nothing doing!), the speakers 
(ditto!), and finally the motherboard itself (the music still sounds like 
Jimmy Carter in the outhouse). I even did my N’awlins, LA Lady Marmalade 
cross-dressing voodoo vamp and mojo boogie. I finally downloaded Real Player 
thinking that my Windows Media Player might have been the victim of a 
hacking most foul and that Microsoft itself was the culprit--the sand in the 
Royal Jelly, so to speak. Nope...same results—Coltrane was still in drag, 
Sonny Rollins too, and Ella Fitzgerald sounded like she was scat dancing 
through a mine field. What to do? What to do? Well, I called Best Buy again. 
At this point, I think they plan to just swap out my computer tower out for 
another  of similar statue. Will that solve my problem? Who knows! We got 
Obama after Bush, didn’t we?
