I think Fry's are only in California... CompUSA's are everywhere, though.
Worst case scenario...go to Radio Shack and get a tube of the white goop they call thermal grease, and use that until someone "at home" can mail you your AS3.

If your temps are really that bad, use what you can, until someone can send ya the good stuff. I know there's a bunch of members of ours down in Fla....hopefully one will jump in and hook you up.
Have someone mail you yours Monday, if possible. Put it in a bubble envelope, and send it USPS Priority... You'll have it in two/three days.
