I'm a married man for pete's sake, I can't be gettin images like that stuck in my head, lol

Sure you can... I went to the mailbox today and the only thing we got was my wife's Women's Health magazine. Who was on the cover? Kate Beckinsale in a barely-there top and bikini bottom. My wife is fully aware of my love affair with Ms. Beckinsale and when she saw the magazine, she asked how I made it back from the mailbox? I said it was tough, but I managed.

I was really kidding.

Though I'm sure it's a lovely sight. What kind of headlight motor?

Copacetic · June 22nd, 2012, 02:34 PM

Mazda rx7, vintage 1985 . Actually goes on a 87 porsche 911 cab with a slant nose conversion.

I hope this isn't violating anything on here, but I just wanted to let you folks know that I have a VZW case/holster combo on ebay for sell for our Nexus'. ($9.95) New in box. If anyone from here buys it, for an extra $5 I'll throw in 2 new Cruzerlite cases (a red one, and a blue one) as well. Just let me know that you got it so I'll know to do that. These last 2 just don't look as professional as I'd like for my office. I love the case/holster combo, but it doesn't really fit well with an extended battery. Let me know if any questions.

Don't worry AJ, several months of treatment and multiple surgeries I'm sure I'll be fine. You'll get the bill.

This place is a little wacky tonight. Well I'm off to run for 4 miles. Love it. Still 86 degrees and almost 9pm. I have half a mind to weigh myself before and after, just to see how much water I lose. Yuck. Later yall.

Well, we want to keep that kind of thing in the Classified section so if you don't mind posting it there (be sure to pay attention to the photo requirements) it would be appreciated!

What a day y'all!

Got up at 3a. Drank a Muscle Milk. Dress. Work 4a till 930a.

Borrowed product from another store and bought milk to make sure we didn't run out; delivered said items.
Hop on he sales floor to give a partner a 10.
Find out one of my partners is at the hospital.
Work another hour on the floor whilst calling to get shift for sick partner. Leave at 330p.
Wife calls me while on my way home that baby is sick.
Pick up baby wellness supplies.
Grab an overdue lunch.
Home by 4p. Nap by 410p.

Awake now and feeling refreshed.

Truth be told...just another 12hr day y'all!

For what it is worth, cross your fingers and toesies for me, though I feel like I nailed the interview!

Thanks for the support and the birthday wishes. Means a lot.

I look all over and still can't see what it could be. I then feel a wet spot on the carpet. Right by is an unopened bottle of chocolate milk that I bought on Sunday. That high temps the past few days caused the cap to loosen and some of it leaked out. Now I need to find something to get rid of the smell.

That happened to a friend of mine last summer...took a while for her to get the smell out. Hope you have better luck than her.

AntimonyER · June 22nd, 2012, 09:33 PM

So, I decided to push myself, and go for 5 miles tonight, in under an hour, and I pulled it off with 4 seconds to spare. That beats my furthest run by a full mile

endomondo said I burned 1200 calories doing it too.

how many beers do I get in celebration?

I usually use paper towels and then step on them with my heel until the moisture doesn't soak through.

Before I started work today at 3p I put baking soda on the floor. When I got out at 11p the smell was still slightly there. I'm going to let it go the rest of the night. But I'm going to add the bread and vinegar. I'm also going to walmart here in minute and look for Nature's Miracle.

Wow, that is pretty disgusting. Only in Jersey.

The Pawtucket Red Sox had a free skills clinic this morning so I took Evan. He had a blast. He got some pitching training from Alex Wilson (a righty reliever out of Texas A&M that could get a call up this year). It is nice that these AAA teams do stuff like this, all free and two tickets to tonights game on them so Evan and I get to have a guys night out.

He wouldn't let me tick it in. Can't wait for the game either, it's just him and I.

I play but on ps3.

In other news.

After about 20 hours of baking soda on the floor and a container with a slice of bread and vinegar...either I can barely smell it or my mind is playing tricks on me. I'll wait till tomorrow and I might put some vinegar on the carpet, let it set for about 10 minutes and then blot it with paper towels.

It only got to 94 or so today in Richmond, but that was miserable enough. I went to the pool and it was so warm, it wasn't really even refreshing.

RazorSharp · June 23rd, 2012, 06:53 PM

Finally just had a major rain here, guessing the temperature will start dropping soon.

Hey all...sorta new here...I watch this thread and see what's going on but haven't ever been active in it...you might find me around the All Things Root section more often

seeing as this is where all the other GNexians hang out, I was wondering if any fellow Nexus owners using Nova Launcher have found a way to set different wallpapers for each homescreen

Thanks!

I have not. I don't believe that to be a feature. I could very well be wrong.

It isn't a feature in the launcher but there are 3rd party apps that do it. I just can't seem to find one compatible with Nova

Copacetic · June 23rd, 2012, 08:19 PM

Evening all! We have been in Maryland all weekend and my battery is going much quicker here. It seems I either have great 4g or almost non-existent 3g, the radios are working so hard the phone is warm.

As for mainstream, yes. Overall, hell no. Maybe you just have the "I need the latest and greatest" mentality? The GSIII intrigued me for about a minute.

Anyone reading the S3 threads? There is one thread on there started by a new member that is full of replies by other new members. Kinda wondering about that

I'll go check it out. I was over there for a second yesterday and found the place really active! New phones are always a great way to build the site.

Morning everyone!
So the show, Music Man, was pretty good. Great songs and dancing. I think we were probably the only people in our age group as it was pretty much all old folks and kids (and a lot of presumably grandparents and grandchildren).

breadnatty08 · June 24th, 2012, 05:12 AM

Anyone catch this in the SGS3 forum:
Coolest feature you've found?
Sounds pretty cool. Wonder if that can be ported to the Nexus?
