You know about collision alarms? They go off when a ship is too close to another ship. Some people need irony alarms--great big sirens that scream AAAAAAaaaaaaahoooooooooooooooooogaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah when they're about to say something that completely contradicts something said or done in the past.











Yes, I'm aware that many people think that applies to me.

Well, unjon, I'm glad you're OK.

I had my colonoscopy last week. Don't ask what the results were.

Take it one step further, catman.

All I have is a flipphone.

At work, I have a tablet (cloud-linked), GPS accurate to the centimeter, and access to all kinds of toys.

But NOTHING has yet beaten my judgement and a Brunton compass. Tried and true. They don't even have programs yet that do some of the things I'm capable of with a dozen measures of strike and dip off an outcrop face, a stratigraphic description, and visual verification of conditions.

Flip phones, sliders and candy bar phones are called "feature phones". In developing countries they have more features than here though.

If you purchased more than two tickets and violate the rules clearly set forth by ticketing then don't bitch when those ticket orders are canceled.
Furthermore, if you cannot follow simple rules then you should not be trying to survive for a week in the Nevada desert.
