Arcon, Actually I was too embarassed to bring another joystick home and have to endure her smirks as I hooked it up. Luckily a friend of mine who flies as Pirate on AH came over and hooked me up with a new stick and a better video card, so now I can actually read my guages so I should be good to go. I was only kidding about being a milksop henpecked husband. I'm the master of my castle, dude. And as soon as I'm done rubbing her feet until she falls asleep I'll sneak a Visa out of her purse, tiptoe over to my computer, unplug the speakers so as not to wake her up as I log on and reactivate my account. See, I was just kidding about being a popsicle. I'm happily married.
