Galaxy Nexus Watering Hole

I had my calzone yesterday, BB! Italian sausage, mushrooms & black olives rolled up into greasy, cheesy goodness by my local pizzeria! YUMMOUS

I just ate the Southwest Patty Melt 6 Dollar Burger from Carl's Jr. Felt naughty, but it was so gooooood. :)

On a different subject for just a moment...would you guys/gals be willing to check out my guide? It's here: http://androidforums.com/showthread.php?p=4156861

Thanks y'all. Off to feed the baby more than just the raisins he's snacking on right now!

I just found Verizon has a deal for a FREE Nexus with 2-year contract if you enter a special promo code! In fact, the same promo code will get you any accessories - like car chargers and holsters - for HALF PRICE! Gotta tell my Eris-owning son when he wakes up :D

Promo Code is APRILFOOLS :p

Am I the first person to ever quote themselves? :rolleyes:

Anyway: after showing this April Fool's joke to my son, you know what he went and did after Church? He bought a Nexus!

I can tell you this: Beam is flat-out COOL! The one thing we've found that it WON'T beam is pictures in the Gallery :( And if you beam a website to someone else, they have to have the same BROWSER or it will take them to the Market for install.

Anyway, that's what happened to us on April 1st :)

Good afternoon y'all. Does anyone know how to stop the Nexus screen from dimming after a few minutes? Even when I have mine in its Seidio dock which by the way it doesn't recognize as a dock, it still dims. It is very annoying when I am trying to use it as a desk clock! I have tried every setting I know. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I downloaded an app called Screen Adjuster, and ever since I tweaked it I have had no such problems. You can set individual color levels, brightness and contrast. Give it a try and see if it resolves your problem :)

Thanks for the obviousness of my AF joke. I like to get in the spirit but am usually pretty lame.
It's been a "joke" of a day here at work. We've had another record week in the restaurant and it's been an insane amount of business the passed two days. I had to have my lovely wife drive all over the city looking for cheese for us. She was an absolute trooper and I love her for it. Should get out of here shortly. Everyone enjoy the rest of their evening!

Why are there pictures of cats at the bottom of the page?

What cats? Where? Oh, April Fool's. Got me, made me look.

Very cool, I have yet to meet anyone to beam with. On a similar note, I love it when I pay with Google money and someone asks me what app will let them do it with their phone and I get to tell them they can't, lol
