Bring out yer dead!
Here's one.
Nine pence.
I'm not dead.
What?
Nothing. There's your nine pence.
I'm not dead!
'Ere, he says he's not dead.
Yes he is.
I'm not.
He isn't.
Well, he will be soon, he's very ill.

Been wanting to watch that again. Love Monty Python.

She's a witch! Burn her!

 

[Clementine_3]

How do you know she's (I'm???) a witch?

 

[lunatic59]

You could have gone PB, too.

"There's a big difference between all dead and mostly dead."

You turned me into a newt.

 

[Clementine_3]

OOOO! Love that one too!

And now, for something completely different ...

The topic.

All installed.

I got tired of re-reading the reviews. I knew I was going to pull the trigger sooner or later, so in the words of the late-great Eli Wallach ...

"When you have to shoot, shoot. Don't talk."

I'm definitely interested to hear your thoughts once you get it.

Expect a full review, but i'm not expecting cutting edge. The overwhelming consensus is it's an average smartwatch that looks like a real, quality timepiece. That's what sold me.

What has me most curious, though is performance as it's one of the the few Android wear devices to use the Intel Atom processor.

 

[shalemail]

I'm curious about your new smart watch as well luna, twice over in fact. I love Fossil watches and also interested in the processor performance.

Now, my last purchase. I am certain some of you have seen the commercials for the "Dawn of Justice" Jeep Renegades...
Well I didn't want the Jeep, but I did covet the badges - yea I needed some stinkin badges. So behold the ultra rare Forte5 Dawn of Justice Edition. The badge was much closer to my budget.

Not too many numbers, they just go up to high [emoji23] Really nice watch, I approve.

 

[lunatic59]

So for those keeping track here's what should be the last watch purchase for a very long time, the 24-hour movement (meaning the hour hand only circles once for a 24-hour period). This one is a bit of history, too, since it was made in the former USSR. It's in excellent shape for a watch that's approximately 25 years old. I do need to align the movement in the case (you can see it's a bit rotated to the right) once it arrives from Russia, but that is pretty simple to do with these.

Yes, it's kind of a novelty, but it should be a fun novelty. I'll have to learn how to tell time all over again, too. Hopefully it's not too many numbers.

We've heard that before. Until the next watch. What you need it a 12-step program with a Swiss movement.

Just got a new smart thermostat that works with our Amazon Echo. Instead of a 6 degree "comfort range", it nails the temp to the degree and keeps it there. I look forward to setting it up.

 

[mikedt]

Ah, the Internet of Things.

 

[AZgl1500]

I have several different styles of the GPS mounts, the one I actually put on today clamps to the handlebar grip, and the Garmin 7" 2979 GPS is fixed dead center between the handlebars and even with them. Keeps the thing out of my line of vision.

One can never have too many hard drives.

Bought from the usual place of course.

Awesome! Another name we can't read or pronounce.. I think you do that to us on purpose, Lmfao

Candies (salmiak)... Sorry, no pics... Just ate them all

An SPEN to replace the one that exploded.

Since Wednesday I bought two leg braces, a pair of crutches, prescription pain killers, an urgent care visit and a visit with the orthopedic center. HAHA. Ouch. Took a misstep and rolled my ankle but really messed my knee up. It's much better today but I swear I have never been in so much pain. Silly tendons and ligaments. OUCH.

I'm not going to "like" your post as that would suck
Spending money on medical always sucks
Sorry to hear that bud!
