Sorry Gang

I have been a pretty crap member of the club lately. No excuses. The truth is I'm having some trouble interfacing with people and going through a general period of malaise that is making me bad company. I'm sorry, but I just need to deal. I hope you are all well. As the old cliche goes: It's not you...

Re: Ride Report: A Tour Through the Southwestern States *Pho

This was excellent! As a sidenote, if the battery in the FOB fails, you can still start the bike as it has an RFID backup. Remove the key from the fob and place the opening of the fob onto the rectangular peg on the front side of the ignition module and when you push ignition key it will authorize. ...

Re: Long live the great empire

Yeah, I get lots of exposure to handsets of all flavors being in IT at RadioShack. It's dangerous place to get religious about phones, because inevitably they all have some shortcoming or the other.

I truly hope you enjoy the 920, I am very eager to check one out myself.

Re: Long live the great empire

Say what you will, but the Apple devices are great for a large portion of people. They are easy to use, have good hardware, and perform their advertised functions well. Not to mention a huge library of apps, many not available on other platforms. My Android had a great list of features, many of whic...

I have been using a Lumia 900, and had a Samsung Focus prior to that. So I have been using Windows Phone since it's inception. I have also had Samsung Galaxy S (android), and I have an iPad 3. I have had to use and support devices on all the mobile OS's. Windows Phone is a solid, stable platform. Af...

Re: Han will never shoot first again.

Actually the original trilogy did get released on LaserDisc, and to this day remains the definitive version. Disney will make their money back if they manage release and "un-Lucased" version on BluRay.

By definition, the US cannot be a Third World country. It's a Cold War term for countries not aligned with either the US or the USSR.

Re: The 3's report

Wow. Between my experience with a Suzuki I owned, and fixxers litany of weird issues with his...I'm becoming skeptical of the brand. Say what you will...

Glad it all ended well. Happy you all like the Sena's, I said alot of nice things about them and would have felt bad if they did not work out.
