See.... that's a difference.... ;)


OT: HAting people who run red lights. We were nearly broadsided today by someone running a red at about 70 MPH. Thinking it may have been a stolen car. So glad my husbands quick reflexes saved us from being hit. I'd have been a puddle if that guy had hit us on the passenger side.

Feeling extremely lucky today. :sweat:

Oooh. :sweat:

Yeah, when the light turns green, I always take a look both ways before entering the intersection... After getting broadsided by that UPS truck ages ago, I know better. :sweat:

We did, which is why my husband hit the brakes in time. But the guy was hidden behind the other vehicles that were already stopped at his light. It was hectic. :sweat:

Hmm, even being cautious is never enough sometimes. :sweat: :fingerscrossed:

Had another close one today. While I was riding through the woods today a branch about 10 feet long and thick as a 4x4 fell on the trail right in front of me. A couple seconds later and my horse and I would have been hit. :sweat:

Very glad that someone has been watching out for me. :bow:

It's your Roku. You should carry around the remote every where you go.

That d*%mned remote has had me on google a bunch of times. Apparently the Roku 2 has a bunch of bugs that the Roku 1 doesnt. I was not alone it seems. The remote starts flashing and freezes, even after rebooting several times.

I got mine unfrozen by bashing it on my coffee table. :beaten:

:lol: Fuggin' funny!

Sorry for your trouble though. I have a Roku LT which never gave me any problems and I also bought a Roku 2 XS. In the beginning the XS remote seemed unresponsive...but I chucked the crap ass battery that came with the box and threw in a fresh Duracell and after that it worked like perfectly.

OT:

Idiots who fill up with reg gas at the only diesel pump. I can never understand why in our area, land of the big rigs do they only have one everywhere and big lines. :shakehead:

Today with 10 pumps free some geezer, (Not our Geezer) cuts in front of our truck while we are circling round the pump in our big truck, another farm truck is behind us and another behind him. And its late and waiting ten minutes means finishing chores in the dark. Anyway it didnt work for me. So I hopped out and went up to him and asked if he was getting deisel and he said no. So I told him he had cut me off and there were 10 empty reg gas pumps free (big station). He asked if i was asking him to move. And I said "YES!"
Well he got offended and left entirely.
And I got smiles and thumbs up from the other diesel users!! :victory:
Bets he would have had to clean all his windows slowly too..... :shakehead:

Nice. At least you did not have to summon your powers to call forth all manner of woodland creatures to devour the old man.
