I'll bet Patrick can even tell him where to put it.

Indeed!

Here is a thing on the first guy who got one of these feet if you would like to check it out.

Well, that is a picture of pictures!!

 

[Uncle Willie]

Beautiful photos and the eye drawing is beautiful too. You be a talented man my friend. If you would send me the hugh res vetsions of the eye and the sea oat(?) pics I would love to print on the large format inkjet and frame them up and hang em. Got a lot of blanks walls around here that could use some beauty. I think you have my email address?

I'll nose around for the "grass" original .. my small watercolor eye is about 1/2 life size of the original, although I could take a really high res pic and you could enlarge it ..

Somebody mentioned wallpaper .. here are a couple ready to go on a widescreen monitor / 1080 res ..

I took a minute and played around with the "pole light front yard fog" pic ::

If anyone needs help in how to change wallpaper (the computer kind) .. Windows ::

Copy the pic by right click / save to your Photo File .. then ::

Give em a call. I have always been impressed by their customer service.

Absolutely! I had an issue just yesterday and that customer service gal at Amazon was beyond courteous, let alone efficient.

You're going to be our resident bionic man!!

I think I'll be the first one in Spokane to get them. For all I know maybe first in the NW. When I downloaded the app there had only been 100 downloads so far so maybe they are going to use me for a promotional thing which is what they did with the ones I have now. Had me go to a conference over in Seattle to show other amps how good they worked. That was 5 years ago.

Actually I even take showers sitting down

Me too at least for now.

 

[MattB101]

Have you ever checked out one of these?

It kind of works like a submarine door and the jacuzzi is just on/off, but I have a massively screwed up lower back and it helps. Actually I even take showers sitting down (but that's just bc I'm lazy).

I've seen those but, we're not there yet. Going to yank out the tub. Fill in the hole and put in a walk in shower with a bench, lots of niches for shampoo and such and a bunch of shower heads.

 

[MattB101]

This is what I'm talking about with shower controls. If you put in a big shower with lots of shiwer heads it makes adjusting the temperature a lot easier.

When I talk with any CSR on about anything, especially if I have had to go through "phone call Robotech", I'll usually ask them where they are, just a little small talk (I figure they don't get that much) .. at any rate, I had cause to call Amazon and had a nice female on the line .. so I talked a bit and asked her where she was .. she told me and said she was at home as well .. this was later in the evening .. I thusly discovered, that, apparently, many do work from home .. I don't know what kind of money they make, but it seems like a great opportunity for folks that want to make a few bucks in their pajamas and do it legally ..

If you limit your purchases to those sold by Amazon itself or from a vendor you have previously dealt with I don't think you really have anything to worry about. You can pretty much tell the Chinese merchants by the "engrish" in their descriptions and such.

Another thing about their associated vendors. If you mess around a bit you can track down vendor reviews right from the ordering screen. Reviewers can be pretty explicit about any problems they've had. If there are only a dozen or so reviews, I would look elsewhere.

Having only heard about scam problems on this thread, I am much more likely to track down vendor reviews.

74° today. Having a cold snap. They say it might be 69° during the day this weekend. Who knows? That might be cold enough to get the Canadians out of the ocean.

Didn't stop them when we lived in Hollywood (FL). The Canadians would take over the beach! I have nothing against Canadians, but when you go into a restaurant on Hollywood Beach I kinda expect to be spoken to in English. Maybe not perfect English, but not French!

It snowed today and contrary to my usual bad luck, I SEEN IT!

Please remove your hat before walking into the bank

One of the security guards at my bank is a patrol officer in the area. We usually chat for 5 minutes or so during my time at the bank. He and few other officers rotate as security at the bank. Anyway, I always take the time to remove my sunglasses and hat any time that I enter a bank. An old habit that is easy to do.

That's really kewl on yur juice cost. Wow, 16oz is a lotta flavoring! I got a few 4 oz bottles in my last order......need to get some more of those, and get a few smaller bottles of things I don't have but want to try.

I found that the cost of 16 oz is not but a bit more than 2 of the 4 oz bottles. I know that the juice will be used so I am not too concerned.

Dang we are having a heat wave clear up to 12 but the days are getting longer.

I was going to mention something about a milking machine, but thought that might just be too much ..

Yeah, that would be udderly over the top.

You guys just wait till this arctic blast hits you guys in the Eastern half of the US. You're going to love it. Follows the snow. Man if we have to do what we do now 24/7 I'll be using 2TB of data a month. Have to get the super duper plan.

 

[Kenna]

The problem is, at that point, we won't have any choice unless we refuse the chip implant, which will then place us on the "Suspect List" .. .. however, the need for sleep will have been eliminated, so we'll do whatever we do 24/7 ..

In the year 2525 ..

If man is still alive...he will want naps.

Sorry (not really, really) to be da contrarian here. Long story short, last year had my local CU manager personally introduced me to ALL da present employees after I was 'bout to close my 21 year long accounts dere due to da above BS. Actually learned dat my ol' curmudgeon/TWIUTB attitude 'limited' their 'limits'.

Am I special? Absolutely NOT. But I sure as Hades can find a financial institution (actually have 'nother account locally, wid no past issues) to allow dem earn monies wid my monies where I do not have to shed my hat/'shades'/dignity!

Never ferget to follow da money and, to a somewhat less influential level, da power of public relations/customer relations!!!

So help me, when did self respect/worth get tossed to da side? <donning flame suit>

You guys just wait till this arctic blast hits you guys in the Eastern half of the US. You're going to love it.

Thanx! Really lookin' forward to Sunday, 57°- 42°F... not!

Regardless Pat, I'm just soooo day-um tickled dat you're gettin' a new programmable 'foundation'!
