Bummer, Dustin. I feel for you. A couple weeks ago I accidentally trashed my phone while running to my bike in the rain. As I was ducking under a tree limb the phone jumped out of my shirt pocket. Didn't realize it was missing 'til hours later. Found it the next day under that tree. It enduring a pounding rain and was sitting in a puddle. Eventually got it partially functional (texting worked), but speaker and mic were dead. I'm now using my son's old phone for a couple months. Waiting for the new iPhone to come out - hopefully in Sept. I'll suffer as punishment for my stupidity until then.

Satisfaction!

Was tootling on hiway one, traffic is somewhat heavy - I guess from all the tourists leaving town. No room to get around them, just tolerate it.

So a Nissan Titanic Armada SUV decides to change lanes in front of me, without looking of course, all I see from my level out my driver side window is the big taillight start to flash - uh oh - then the SUV begins to move over. I tap the horn, no effect. Hit the brakes and back off.

Then this CHP car comes out of nowhere and wants to get between me and the SUV. Yep, SUV driver is pulled over. Thumbs up out of the sunroof.

feltgoodman.
