    Fix. You faced near death one year and killed like 2 days later right?? And you will kill quickly again.

    Breath in a mock scrape. Infect the deer. Then stalk hunt their sickly butts with a spear. Master hunter technique.

    That is nice of your employer. They don't do that here. You want the weekend off and there is OT in your department? You have to take Friday and Monday off. And good luck with that if it wasn't planned before the OT started.

    Had a friend ask about a drink idea and I told her about apple cider with caramel vodka. Bad part is I can't taste anything!

    So about a month or so I paid some guys to take my dock out, because I did not feel like battling with a dock. Saturday I see my neighbor starting to get set up to pull his boat lift. Damn it I am not going to ignore a 66 year old man try to do this by himself. It was a battle but us 2 old men got the boat lift and his 2 docks out. Worst part is an hour after we were done his lazy a-hole sons show up.

    Could be worse, we have a stacked washer and dryer, I can hear a bearing going bad. Nothing like having to replace a wash machine because the dryer is bad.

    My dryer bearing was replaceable, the washer bearing was pressed into the unit. I neither have the time nor tools to undertake that project.

    Repair guy said cost to repair is on par with replacement... So he didn't want to do it either...

    When my son got tattoos, I told him, I see a future of long sleeve shirts if you're gonna be working white collar jobs... Living in the heat of the south, albeit these jobs would be indoors... The brokerage biz includes a fair bit of schmoozing.

    These guys best make it in music, or they very well may have a very difficult career path...

    Stealth cam customer service........blows!

    Got a Fusion X cell cam early this fall. Takes great pics and works in an area where another brand didn't.

    I took the cam in after bear season with the intent to move it to another location. Put a different SD card in it and the first light for status turns red. The cam sees the card as full-it's not. I formatted the card on the computer (fat32 as its a 32 gb card). Tried a brand new card-same deal.

    I used the erase card feature in the app. The red full card indicator goes away to be replaced by an ! in the card outline and underneath it says erase.

    Contact Stealth cam and the response I get is to ask what card I'm using and to remind me that I should be using a 8-32GB card and not a microcard. I replied to that and it has been crickets since.

    Anyone have this experience and if so, how did you resolve the issue?

    I had a different issue with a brand new fusion couple months ago. Wouldn't connect even tho it showed in the command app as being active. Called their support number and all I got was a busy signal. Couple days of that, when I tried to set it up again it suddenly fully connected. I know I'm no help for your situation but agree on the level of support. 2 days of busy signal? Gtfo
