I have a 2006 blackbook. Recently i feel like it is reaching uncomfortably high temperatures, which says a lot since it always gets hot. i'm using snow leopard but i don't feel like it is due to sl. Here are the temps that istat gives me (in farenheit)

HD- 39
CPU- 82
enclosure base - 37
heatsink a- 70
heatsink b- 68
mem bank a1- 56
northbridge 1- 64
northbridge 2- 66

anything out of the ordinary?

Those temps are in Farenheit? There's no way...82F is running pretty darned cold. Most MacBooks will idle around 45-50C which is 113-122F.
