I resisted a new phone like crazy. I'd see people whipping their fingers across the screens like Tom Cruise in "The Minority Report." and OH OH OH this is too futuristic for me; my phone works just fine, thanks. But talking on the phone while riding in Lakeside Park as the trickle turned to light rain, the old reliable took on too much moisture. So I set it in a nice bowl of dry brown rice, the usual fix, but the 1, 4, 7 dot-pads wouldn't work. It was high time I took the dive. Everyone says the iphones are so easy.
And Art let me tell you, they really are. The first thing I said to the Verizon Guy was show me how to make a call. In some ways it's even easier than the old flipper. I got the phone in the afternoon and I was taking pix after dinner with one trip back to have them set up the email account to I could send the pics to myself them drag them into the library on my computer.
Greg, I actually went there with the Visi pic waiting to be sent the Verizon Guy was trying to tell me I should be able to sent it right to Aworg. I had to explain to him, a delightful uber tekkie how that isn't possible SO FAR, but some some day, sure.
Phil and Gene, in fact, I got the rain jacket, certain that one future afternoon, I'll jump in the lake having forgotten to pull the phone out of the pocket of my trunks. The guy told me he stunned people on Memorial day Weekend by throwing his phone into their swimming pool. "Are you on drugs," they protested.
Fred, the top comes off the Blackstone so easily, I can see the sockets. You've given me an idea till Christmas comes, I'd like to replace the orange lights with blue.
Oh, Kelly, I put the sheets and shaving towels to soak in the 56 Frig before coming here. I'll rinse them in the Norge for you later this afternoon. It should be a very pictorial afternoon for you and Frigilux. Because the tub is so much wider the load turns over rather than thrashing to and fro. But I have water shooting slits atop rather than wings.
Art, this genie is so sensitive that you only need the lightest touch. I thought I took six pix, but at bedtime I hit the photo icon and saw TWELVE of them: the floors, my hand, the wall, my foot, and this pretty pic that I took while only composing the shot. I guess there's a spot on the screen that takes the pic without even hitting the button.
This cycle is wonderful. On the letter "A" in wash is a black triangle where the overflows commence after washing for only 3 minutes, then a one minute spin, a 2 minute overflow rinse, and a three minute DRY at slow speed. it's a really neat, very fast cycle.
