Sell me your old shit.

My MacBook's power adapter died last night.  Frayed.  I don't want to pay 80 bucks at the Apple store to get a new one right now.  I really just can't afford it, and my laptop is a necessity at the moment.  Currently, I have the end of mine all bent up in a weird way that somehow is holding the ends together enough to charge the laptop, secured into place along the side of the computer with stickers so it doesn't move when I move around or anything.  That's... Pathetic.  If you've got one that works and you don't need it any more, let me know please.  I'm asking in this community because I work and hang out a lot in Davis so I'm there all the time.  I want to pay for this thing and come pick it up at your convenience.  Price probably depends on how old the cable is.  Let me know?  It's the MagSafe (or whatever) one, like this:

Random bits of lumber?

[teratomarty.livejournal.com]

Have you got bits of 2x4 or 1/2" plywood down in your basement or under the porch? Do you want to get rid of them? I'm doing some projects around the house, and I need a couple 3' lengths of 2x4 and a biggish bit of plywood (doesn't matter if the bits are bigger, I have the technology). Tags doesn't have anything sturdy enough, so I thought I'd see if anyone has semi-scrap lumber before I rent a Zipcar and haul out to Home Depot for two bits of wood. Thanks!

ETA: 9" square (or larger, of course) bits of plexiglas are also welcome.

Bus Schedule confusion regarding HonkFest/Octoberfest

[chenoameg.livejournal.com]

We're trying to figure out taking the bus from around Davis Square to Arlington Center tomorrow. (getting there by 1pm). Usually the 77 would be our Sunday choice, but there's this parade tomorrow.

The MBTA website says the following confusing thing:
Route 77 will omit stops between Alewife Station and Ringe Ave. connections can be made at Alewife Station.

Any idea what the 77 will actually be doing tomorrow?
