It's a racket that some can break and some try to break. The struggle was recently on display at the Australian Open.

True. Some of those players act in such a way it's a wonder they aren't strung up!

I've use F-stop gallery for years.
I can also recommend Simple Gallery - Apps on Google Play
Both of them have always galleried for me.

My s21 hasn't received a January update yet: last update was in December.

The hardware reliability has been great, apart from the fingerprint scanner becoming more glitchy recently (which may of course be software). After 4.5 years of use I still find Samsung's software experience a step backwards from a less cluttered, more vanilla android. Which does mean that when the device does finally reach EOL I will have a dilemma to resolve...

The Exynos S21 Ultra, G998B, is still my back-up phone and I would like to extend its life with a custom ROM that gets regular Google Security patch updates but sadly such ROM's are few and far between. Ideally, a custom ROM from Lineage would be my first choice but no such luck so far. 😢

Based on the pop culture -- I learn this: you can swallow gum and it goes throughh out your urinary tract.

The old westerns have some good humor in them. It is a bit dry, like him, but funny !

Love me some Dirty Harry movies ! ! !

Back then there was only one gun that made that sound !

This reminds me of a funny story from my way back machine. My grandparents were on their way to visit my family, stopped at a rest stop, and locked the keys in the car. Finally someone stopped that gave my granddad a coat hanger and he picked his way into the car. My grandmother, a beautiful person but not the sharpest knife in the drawer, said "Ray, we should keep a hanger in the trunk just in case we get locked out again"

Hmmm...I'm gonna bet you are in the camp of "the glass is half empty."

As I've said before, I love Darjeeling tea. I've been drinking it exclusively for years now. My last tea store visit I decided I would treat myself to the second flush Darjeeling tea which is significantly more expensive. I only bought a quarter pound to try and then my normal pound of regular Darjeeling tea. Here is what google says about the second flush: Second Flush Darjeeling is a prized summer-harvested black tea (late May–June) known as the "Champagne of teas" for its distinct, complex, and mature flavor profile. I brewed a pot and will admit it is a clean crisp black tea that's ideal for serving over ice. However, I'm very spoiled to the thicker taste, if you will, of the regular Darjeeling tea. I'm getting low on tea and remembered I have almost a quarter pound of the second flush in the pantry. So, I'm drinking some now. I have a fear that by the time I drink a quarter pound of second flush my regular tea will taste muddy. The second flush is very smooth and clean tasting. My taste might change when I shop again. The Darjeeling tea is $36 a pound and the second flush Darjeeling tea is $48 a pound.

A quick update: the forecasted highs was edited when I looked this morning and this week is to be around five degrees cooler each day. It almost reached forty today and there was a bit of slush on the roads this afternoon. Maybe ride Wednesday... maybe.

I love breakfast. I had breakfast every morning while growing up. If we had cereal it was cooked oatmeal. It was fried bacon or sausage and sunny side up eggs with hashbrowns or grits. Once in a while I break down and fix the meal for dinner. I haven't eaten a morning or noon meal in decades.

I apologize. The inclement weather has kept me inside this last month. The thrill of participating on these busy and entertaining forums is the only entertainment I have.
🤣😢 🤣

No worries, bless my wife's heart, she informed me Alcaraz won. I'm watching the rebroadcast now. It's the first set with Djokovic looking great. I have a lot of respect for the guy. I would have enjoyed the anticipated Sinner Alcaraz matchup but this is entertaining so far. A fun tournament to watch. I was a huge fan of Rod Laver while growing up. There is a good reason the main arena bears his name.
