E-Bikes

As much as I love riding a bicycle, I never owned a motorcycle. I had friends with bikes that I rode and one at the cabin where I used to fish all of the time. I was always a bicycle guy. I sold my first e-bike to my buddy that was hanging up his leathers and selling his bike. He is my age and had accidently laid it down. Try as he might he had to get his son to come by and help him set it back up. He said it was just too much bike and the e-bike was perfect. Especially considering he lives only a few residential blocks from hopping onto one of the best bike trails in Kansas.

I hope you have a great time riding. There is just something about the wind in the face that is a rush. Be as safe as possible and good luck.

Heart Trauma Recovery

I saw my cardiologist... or his registered nurse assistant Friday. My Dr. was away seeing about his mother who had suddenly taken ill. The nurse was pissed because I didn't have the ICD implant that was recommended a year ago. I told her that was a year old echo and I debated the implant but decided against it. She told me that my next heart attack, which would likely happen, would not be a go to the emergency room attack but a sudden failure that I would just check out from. I didn't appreciate her bedside manner but I'm sure she had my health in mind with her advice. Anyway, I am now scheduled for a stress test and another echo in August prior to my next visit. I guess she might have been alarmed at my refusal of the procedure but another six months before we see if you still need a defibrillator is okay. Sometimes I wonder what exactly the agenda is.

I see not bowling threads...

I tell people that I used to bowl. And golf. I bowled and golfed and I was fairly good at both of them... I'd bowl a 230 average and golf about a 72. Then I got married, had kids... over time, something odd happened. My golf and bowling scores reversed so I was bowling a 72 and golfing a 230 (don't laugh: I got my money out of the greens fees because I was out there all day long). I even had a polo shirt with "PLAY THROUGH" embroidered on the back. Finally the PGA sent me a letter, banning me from any course without a windmill on it. That's when I decided it was time to stop both of them. I tell people after I got married, I gave up my balls.

That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

Two Pixel 7 Pro Questions

So, I texted my sister the same website again after telling her I was trying something. My text was sent just as I composed it, and the graphics and ad were not automatically added. Problem solved. Thank you once again. As for "flip to shhh", I guess I can only say "Oh, well". I do know how to schedule modes, but the way you could spontaneously activate do not disturb without even touching the screen was really handy to me. Maybe it will get ressurected someday. I'm quite happy with your assistance, so I am unfollowing this thread. Take care!

Phaseout of 3G Network

In northern Nevada, every now and then my phone will briefly connect with a 3G network, the connection last one or two minutes at most.
The only thing I can think is it was put in place by the bureau of land management, the department of transportation or the forest service, it was set up with or eventually had solar panels installed to charge the batteries
Why is it still operating? I think it was either forgotten about or it's some back up plan. Personally I think it was forgotten about or it was put up on some mountain top and people didn't want to go remove it.
The connection is sporadic, you most certainly won't be streaming Netflix
