Thank god for phone cases though. Phone went flying 60ft sliding strait into a curb. Not a single crack in the phone which is extremely surprising(iPhone. Not my choice btw) however the phone case($7) is chipped, cracked, scraped, mutilated and overall destroyed.

Grrrrrrr!!!!!!!!

Got my Verizon wireless bill yesterday. It was ~$45 higher than it should have been, even factoring in my going over my data plan last month. When I called tonight to try and get to the bottom of it, the customer service rep told me that there are apparently close to 30 *411 search charges. I used it exactly once in that bill cycle, and that's where the fun began....

I don't use any form of automatic electronic bill pay. The closest I get is over the phone with my debit card. So, when I tried to access Verizon's website to see the actual detailed bill, I couldn't even log in with a great service rep trying to help.

It all came down to Verizon's website.... To log in, you have to set up your security details. With the rep on the line, set them up, then try to log in.... Automatically get cycled back to the top of the security page, due to the system claiming that I have never set my account up.

Go through this 4 more time's with the rep so she could take detailed notes; she's getting almost as frustrated as I am. Short and sweet, I'm going to be hitting the closest Verizon store tomorrow to get a hard copy print out so I can sort this out.

And she helped in another way as well; apparently, if you pitch a major :censored: ,yes, you can still request a detailed description of your bill every month, in writing, on paper and sent to your home out of Verizon wireless pocket...

Can't relate my whole plan is $35 a month...unlimited data...

They don't offer such plan's in my actual coverage area; only the city slackers get them.

As for my bill, I think that I've been hacked. The last I heard, a 1/2 watt digital cell phone doesn't have a range of twenty plus mile's, which makes the fact that the bill list's multiple 411 call's from over twenty mile's away in under two minutes highly suspicious.....as well as the other three from area's as far as 45 mile's away in less than ten minutes as well....

Tomorrow's project....:mad:

I still want a 4x4... I keep telling myself "no you get a faster motorcycle again before you can have the 4x4..." lmao

I really want a good comfy highway bike... maybe not goldwing size. but something big that's for sure... maybe DAS BUSA can be had for cheap here. just gotta hit all the chromed bits with some spraypaint. LMAO

what I REALLY want is a stable freaking job... based people with solid heath, I can say that as much. Everyday I wake up and always say to myself.. "you know... if I can just be fixed right now. I'd do so much with my life...." idk if I'm lying to myself or not, feels that way though sometimes, trapped. I feel fine when everything is fine, feel normal can do anything I want. but man, when I get a flare up, and it happens once a day for the most part. my whole mood changes... Its really annoying, sometimes I wish It'd go away or just kill me already.

Whats worse is doctors. but I have been searching for new ones... I'm not going back to my last gastro that place just basically rushes you and don't take you serious. its like "yeah yeah we see/hear this all day here take these meds that maybe will do something and piss off"

and when you take the meds and they have weird sudden laps of turning your whole vision GREEN. YES GREEN. LIKE YOU JUST PUT SOME SOLID GREEN GLASSES ON OVER YOUR EYEBALLS. and the doctor goes "hmm, never heard of that before..." Well it happened more then once, and after a week going cold turkey on the meds, it stopped. i'm sure it had nothing to do with them at all......

Same office, different doctor. Oh we should do another colonoscopy since its been 5 years since your last one... even though the pain/symptoms I have HAVEN'T EVER CHANGED. like they are just draining me of money I barely have just because they know they get freakin paid.

Yeah....being sick...(especially chronically) ....sucks.....

I'm thankful for the 40+ years of reasonably good health I had, the last 10+ have been a real roller coaster.....and I've had my days when I was very disappointed that I had woke up to have to face another day.

On the upside, I've been invited to go herping down at Big Bend with a couple of guys crazier than me....(IDK...I'm going with them...maybe I'm crazier) ....

But I ain't skeered....they're driving so I'm just along for the ride, although I'm liable to have to share the ride back home with a rattlesnake or two....

EDIT: BTW: I love the scenery down there....but it was 100°f. here yesterday...I hate to think how hot it's gonna be there mid-day to afternoon.....and we're roughing it.....

:huh: Herping as in catching poisonous snake's with your bare hand's?!?!?!?! :eek: :eek:

Just got a text back from one of them....they have extra gear....so....the rattlesnakes have an even chance....:thumbsup:

EDIT: Actually, I've done a bare handed grab before...much like the pros do....by getting the snakes attention....and having it strike at something else, then grabbing it behind the head.....

However, I think I'll be just a wee bit more careful when the snake canreally hurt me...

I thought Herping was a crazy night on the town and not end up with an std.

That's what I thought too. Especially being that ol poboy posted it! eeewww!

I wonder if Doug will ask the snakes to "fill in a profile location" or "I will NOT pick you up!!!":stir:
Doug Have fun :popcorn: I cant hardly wait to read about this adventure. Remember Pics or it did not happen!

I'm loosely following instructions for a new RC swept delta airframe. The whole thing is probably stiff enough to survive a 50 mph crash... but the weight is quickly adding up. Probably enough fiberglass strapping on it to lift a car by now.

Durability is nice and all but it has to be able to fly before it can crash :roflol:

Something tells me the only pictures and video we may ever get will be a really bad remake of that old Fed Ex ad with the Aussie who find's out the hard way that the needed antivenom hadn't arrived yet........

Nope.....If I go...there will be pics...I like to BS as well as the next guy....but when Texans say they are gonna do something....(or....more importantly.....HAVE!..) You better believe it!!!!!
.
BTW: Took my little sheethead 5' rat snake out a little while ago....he was pretty ornery for a while....but eventually calmed down..and became a "lap snake "...

EDIT: (Little secret.......shhhhhh............I just put on my DIY pasties....and the snake doesn't even think about facing me....so....I can't get bit).....LOL...
