EDIT: I thought when I hit geezer status I wouldn't have this kind of problem anymore. Well sporty, guess again.  

Reminds me of an old classic story I just finished rereading; 'Leave Her to Heaven'.

There are 3 options for any kind of repair or product building service: CHEAP, FAST, and GOOD. If you want it cheap and fast it won't be good, If you want it good and cheap it won't be fast, If you want it fast and good it won't be cheap.
