Because he needs to video his life for some reason? And then feels like so many others he should inflict it on the world?

Hell! I could post up any number of filums of myself performing acts varying from the mundane to the tedious to entertain the blogosphere but thankfully for the world I choose not to act as a bandwith log-jam by doing so.

If any of you are interested though I can send you any amount of boring links at the tap of a button but since you can 'Tap the Button', (F'nar, F'nar!) yourselves at your own discretion I think I'll just go and sit down again like a little-old-person and have another beer! :boozing:

 There are certain acts we would rather not see preformed.

UPS strikes back at Amazon delivery!

Unfortunately, I can completely sympathize. I was rolling along, minding my own business on my bike in Monterey and looked down to see my stand-spring had given way. Looked up in exactly enough time to see the previously, safely followed utility truck had come to a dead-stop! WHAM!

If you're like me, you have an alarm in your brain now, that starts screaming if you look away from what's in front of you for more than about 1/10 of  a second.  Mine happened almost 40 years ago when I looked in my mirror and missed a car that stopped at a green light in front of me, because an ambulance was crossing.  I spend most of the rest of the day in the hospital, and I understand that the Toyota I hit was totaled by the insurance company.  This is why I oppose putting things like GPS displays within view of a motorcycle rider.

I was not babbling into a recorder at the time, however.

Absolutely! It's the "what the hell ya doin'?" alarm.

Interestingly, I have another one for scanning the sidewalk to my right before I make a full-stop right turn. Long story but some lessons - with luck - NEVER go away!

  Simply to reinforce the credibilty of our friend Mr. Darwin and a prime example of "stupid tax".

He was left in the boot of Jude's VW when it went in for a service and when she got the car back he was gone! I went in and caused a scene but they denied all knowledge of Colin's whereabouts! Filthy, thieving, chicken abusing scum!
