Wow this thread really slows down on weekends when people aren't at work.

VZW is killing productivity nationwide.

 

[trophynuts]

haha oh man, I'm loving this big man love..Work out 5 days a week as well. I didn't know they made muscle head nerd's these days- thought I was the only one.

lol i think we're a small race.

i'm actually trying to get to a stable 260 before i start cutting in February for the summer.

.....i literally can't eat that much protein and calories that i need.....its rough ..and expensive.

 

[jdduncan11]

whoa, did you guys know there's real life stuff besides this forum? I just showered, it was totally weird.

I'm going to do that now. I can't go more than 2 days without taking a shower

... I talked with the district manager on the phone because she had to confirm if this was true and he finally confirmed that indeed he did get an email from corporate saying they can't sell the phones until the 15th 2 days after a soft launch at VZW. FWIW

hmm, the 2 days after a soft launch from VZW is interesting, don't remember hearing that before. nice!

 

[Mr Nexy]

OT???

What ever happened to the twitter #VZWNEXUSFAIL campaign. Did everyone give up on it? I am just wondering because from my experience, a loud minority can get things done if it is done right. Any one else doing emails as well? I know at first I was not, but after this week, I decided to start. I think this phone can end up being delayed a long time if this ISIS thing is true. $ is a huge motivator for companies (and me!). So no telling how much Verizon stands to lose if they cannot get Gwallet figured out. Best thing to help is a loud and persistent minority. (Within respectful reason of course.)

 

[EllieN]

Yeah, what the heck, does EVERYONE else agree that this whole entire situation is just WEIRD? First a demo and some rumor dates, then some active phones we can play with, then we could play with them under very secretive circumstances, then NO demo and NO rumor dates. Then NO clue as to what the phone is, lasers shooting out of their eyes when you mention the phone, ONE in stock at radio shack, WEIRD. ITS JUST WEIRD.

here is how release day is going to in my head:

"do you have the galaxy nexus?"
vzw: "yep! right over here!"
"that is a razr"
vzw: "want me to ring you up?"
"no, that is clearly a razr."*
vzw: haha yep! ready to go? Want a car charger for this heavenly phone found in the garden of the gods?
*points to nexus* "no...i want that phone. the galaxy nexus. It's right there"
vzw: I dont see anything. Want the rezound??

And welcome to all our former lurkers

 

[jdduncan11]

Just leaving the RadioShack store. They have one box in stock. You will you can show me the box.

Kid at the Verizon kiosk has the signs all boxed up. He's not allowed to open them up. He said he's waiting for the Nexus two. That was it for the mall. I went to the Verizon corporate store. The know me. I. Think they were all avoiding me.

I'm off to Best Buy then I give up.

By the way the guy at RadioShack said that there had been 10 people in his store looking for the same phone for the Nexus. Where you were any of you in the RadioShack at quaker bridge mall New Jersey?

Nope, but I know exactly where you went. I have family right around the corner from there

Sounds like you have an all-star team over there. What age group do you coach?

I coach a 1st grade team (we won 6-4 today)

I coach a 3rd grade team (we won 28-24 today)

I coach a JV team we won two games this week.

I either have 2 hours of basketball practice or a game everyday for my JV team and then two hours of practice for my other two teams per week.

It's a LOT of work but I love my 3 boys and I LOVE basketball. Being 6'4" 210, it's what I did growing up. My youngest is an amazing point guard. My 3rd grader is 5' tall and my oldest is a shut down defender (never really an offensive threat but he can flat shut down most anyone on the court).

Finally went to Five Guys. Great burger, garbage fries.

Love the burger and fries!

 

[h2o jefe]

so if I get one now, how do i activate it? Do I just take it home in the box and activate it later?

 

[SamMax]

I am looking forward to Monday...I just hope Monday is not just another rumor fest!

Welcome to the forums, novaace47 and TWISM!

(Warmer? Not at elevation as you know - I'm looking at snow right outside the back door - brrrrr!)

 

[nyg010]

Yeah, iso whey can get pretty expensive. I don't really take any supplements though. my diet consists of a lot of eggs, sometimes raw with my shakes. I get a lot of core and cardio in from brazilian jiu jitsu and muay thai.

lol i think we're a small race.

Is it sad that my outfit for tonight consists of a sweater with a pocket for easy phone carrying?

Not at all. I'm known for wearing cargo shorts and even cargo pants for that exact reason.
