The post whore thread.

Today feels like Spring.

A few robins have started to hang out in yard last few days, our sign that season change may be close.

Good thing I have some time to try drive them away, I despise robins.

Why? Real question.

[buffalobo]

They appear to bully the local birds, Western Plover, Meadowlark, Western Kingbirds, plus all the little birds like finches and swallows and recently Lark Buntings . When the Robins show up the other birds disappear. Pisses me off when I sit on porch early morning drinking coffee and listening to bird songs, robins show up at dawn and chase everybody else away.

Hmmm. It seems like I used to see Robins all the time, but I don't really anymore. Not at my house anyway. I have an entire bush full of Finches. I think that's pretty cool since I grew up only able to identify Robins, Magpies, and Crows.

We didn't see any Robins for the first several years we were out here. Mostly Plovers and Meadowlarks which are my favorites. Always felt lucky that we have Meadowlarks most all the time. They appear to respond when you closely mimic their call.

Just a highball glass? She gives me the stink eye when I pull out the 30oz yeti tumbler and start pouring in the black rum. Then asks in a snarky voice, how was your day dear?

LOL

Fuck

Brand new (60 days old) well cared for S8 appears to be bricked.

I set an alarm using google, locked it and put it in my back pocket. Alarm never went off, never heard a tone for low battery or anything. Pull out phone some time later and it's black.

OK, maybe I let the battery drain, hadn't noticed. But it's setup to go into super saver mode when low so WTF? Won't charge from wall charger, won't trickle charge from computer, won't power on/reset. Computer sees only the Qualcomm device. online tech throwing BS that it just needs to trickle for an hour. Yea, right. pretty sure it's fukn bricked pal.

Corporate phone plan (but I paid for the phone) so I can't just walk into a Verizon store for a replacement.

Fuck me
