Evening Y'all.
When we had a dog she loved to take a bath, usually with one of us in the shower.
Beth will give our monster cat a bath to help with his dry skin, I am waiting for the blood bath to begin but thus far he has not killed her

Never seen the lady at the grooming place actually giving a bath...Haven't even seen any type of tub...She locks the shop's door while bathing...Maybe she's showering too? Maybe she could use some help?

Pepper seems happy, looks, and smells clean when I pick her up.

Morning Y'all
Well maybe the worm has turned for me. Beth killed the charging port in her tab, and it is one from AT&T and has a phone number and such, well I didn't bother putting insurance when I got it a couple of months ago.
I called AT&T to see about having the number turned off because I didn't want to pay $10 a month for something that is dead, and they are sending me a new pad, and according to fed-ex it will be here today.
There are a few things about AT&T I don't like but customer service is not one of them.

Rick, it is those ports that make me wish they all had a wireless charging pad that worked well. Then you could use the wired connection only on occasion.

So Richard, the juice is more apple sauce consistency?

Yea, the "lighting" port of all the apple device since the iPhone5 sucks. I never have a problem with the old style charging port. The new ones are funky and a POS.

Yeah, we have a bunch of those at work. I have to order cables all the time but we don't have to replace the units as often.

I used to think ATT service sucked... Then I had Comcast for a while. Holy crap they are terrible!

I haven't had any trouble with it on my 5s or 6.... The cables suck, but that was the same on the old one.

I just got apple to replace my phone last week. It was switching itself between ringer modes when you hadn't touched the switch. No questions asked they swapped it out. I really thought they'd gripe about the cracked screen!

Yep, like applesauce rather than picante sauce. Remove all the liguids, seeds, run thru food processor, and cook it.

I used to put a label on it that read,"Chip Juice. Made from mangos, aprecots, maters, peppas, onions, and thangs."

The charging cord used for both iPad and iPhone is getting thin close to the plug in part, but still works, knock knock. Of the two the other one is keeped in the cayenne.

Must say that with the 6 it only needs charging about every other day where the others needed a hit on the charger every day or they were dead by 6pm. Then they needed some serious charge time.

I charge my phone every 7 to 10 days. I do not have a smart phone, but it works really well as a phone.

I live on the outskirts of civilization.

That said, I do play some flight and racing sims on the computer. We also have a Wii but only have Wii fit and the Sports Resort that we play on that.

A couple weeks ago the kids wanted to have a little Corsair on Zero time. I drew the short straw and got to fly the Zero. Our six year old took the C model with the four 20mm cannons. Do you know what a 20mm round does to a plane with no armor and no self sealing fuel tanks? The exact opposite of what a 7.7mm round does to a Corsair. With only 120 rounds between the two 20mm cannons I didn't get to use it much. I don't know how he lines his sights up on anyone, he flies around the sky like a mongoose on speed chasing a butterfly. The 13 year old daughter used the speed advantage and did hit and run passes going into the vertical where I could chase her briefly.

I resisted a smart phone. I sipped from the kool-aid many years ago and now I am a convert.

Last weekend it was invaluable. On the drive back home at night the thunderstorms were building. To be able to see real time where the storms are and how to change our route on the fly to avoid going into an area with a tornado WARNING and be alerted when the flash flooding was possible was invaluable.

That and streaming Pandora music at the same time, texting to my wife (as a passenger!) my status and location to ease her mind, I can't imagine going without a smart phone.
