I don't know where else to vent about this, so here will have to do. I bought a pair of used headphones on Amazon a while back. What got sent to me was the BOX for what I ordered and a pair of like, $30 dollar knock off things (what I ordered was like $125). So, using Amazon I sent a message stating that what I got wasn't what I ordered and that I'd return them for the right item. Ok cool. So, they sent me another pair of the right kind and I printed off a return slip and took it to a kohls store, who do their returns for them, and got confirmation that all is good. ... Now Amazon is sending me automated emails that they're expecting the original item to be returned to them. ...I can't do that. I never GOT the original item, that was the problem. Also Amazon's emails specifically state 'this is automated don't respond to this' and offer no alternative contact info. So that's cool.

I've seen bears a few times but only for a moment or two before they haul rear end. I know normally you can handle them and they don't bother people unless there's 'stuff' involved but still, seeing a big predator animal while you're just walking or biking is unnerving a little.

I was walking around my neighborhood when I noticed a very cute little squirrel. He ran out from a bush and looked at me expectantly from about 6 feet away.  I approached and instead of running away he started doing cute poses.    Then he climbed up the bush and slowly started coming towards me.  I had never been this close to a squirrel before, just inches away from me. I'm transfixed as he crawls even closer.  That was the last picture I got before he leaped at me and tried to smack the phone out of my hand. Scared the poo poo out of me, lol.

Ignoring leap years: 32 pages in 75 days. (1000 / 32) * 75 = 2,344 2,344 - 32 = 2,312 2,312 / 365 = 6.33 = 6 + ((33/100) * 365) = 6 + 120 So at the demonstrated rate of posting, this thread will reach 1,000 pages in 6 years and 4 months (June 2027). Congratulations in advance to all of us who are still haunting the forums then.  (Posting from the Goldmine.) Edit: Very nice squirrel photos, Tip.

Checked the digital thermometer this morning. Yup, 4.8F. Oh wait, there is a minus sign... -4.8F It has since gotten colder. Bear/survival story from years ago... My brother and I were backpacking in Devil's Postpile, eastern Sierra Nevada mountains. 4 days, 3 nights. We were up at timberline at the end of the second day, and the trees are all short and stunted and we were having a tough time finding a tall tree to hang our food in for the night. This was before bear cannisters. We do our best but really our two bags are barely 15' off the ground and only a couple feet from the trunk of the trees on scrawny limbs. Not a great way to hang your food up. Dawn of the next morning my brother wakes me up, there is a bear outside our tent and sure enough, it got up the first tree, got the bag down and is just tearing into our food. Inhaling it. Cute black bear maybe 3 years old, but total jerk. We make noise, bang pots, yell, etc. Bear is not giving a poo poo. My brother even starts to throw sticks at it. It does not give a gently caress and I remember watching it suck down a package of tortillas, plastic and all, in one breath. It pretty much had the attitude of "leave the gently caress alone you assholes, I'm trying to have some breakfast here". Finally I light a stick on fire and start waving it around. Bear freaks out and takes off. Yay! We assess the damage and realize we have about 600 calories of food left. And two days of hiking to get back out, a good 15+ miles. We weren't going to die, but it was going to suck. We got lucky though. Had our fishing gear and hit a creek that afternoon and got a couple little fish for lunch. We do about 8 miles that day, splitting a granola bar and such. We camp at a high mountain lake that night. It was really beautiful. We make camp at sunset, skies are purple and orange, top of the mountains, just gorgeous. We hit the lake to fish ASAP, and in about 5 minutes I get a hit, a big one. Rainbow trout, 15". It broke surface, put up a good fight, but I had it. Just as the sun is finally setting. It was a great moment. We could not believe our luck. We fried up the fish, had a bit of onion and bouillon the bear did not eat and made some basic broth. One of the best meals in my life. We got out fine the next day, though a bit hungry. Met the shuttle on time and got back to our car. Pizza and beer followed at the first opportunity.

It was clearly the only footage they had to play with to remove him. Given there was only one more season they could have just the others dialog him back to reconcile with his wife on Mars instead of ruining a cool rear end rescue and having a main character just flop out. I don't know, apparently a big non-main character died this way in the books but not the show, but it just seemed so badly canned in to me.

Meme Poker Party posted:Sorry about your last minute Valentine's ambitions . Valentine's Day is my birthday. Holiday birthdays are all bad, but I think Valentine's is the worst. If you're single it's extra depressing, and if you're in a relationship it becomes this weird thing about whether it's Valentine's Day or my birthday. Everyone wants to be like, "I don't even care about Valentine's day, today is all about you!", but that's a trap.
