The "I'm so old" thread game

Jacks, marbles, jump ropes, and tops were THE toys for girls and boys when I was a kid. We had to improvise to go beyond the norm. We had a 55 gallon drum that was sealed on both ends that we would walk around the yard or try to knock/walk each other off of. We also had an inflated tractor tube that was our trampoline. A favorite of the boys was a pair of boxing gloves. I'm talking a left glove and a right glove. We'd square off, each with a glove, and when a kid got knocked down, we would trade gloves and fight again.

NCAA Football

The Big CFP National Championship Game was tonight and was a dandy. The battle between Indiana and Miami was a pretty evenly matched contest that Indiana ultimately won 27 - 21. On Miami's last drive, with time slipping away, their QB was intercepted. Indiana kneeled off the rest of the clock to get the Win.

Is there any way to prevent spam calls from ringing on a Pixel 8?

I do not answer calls from a number not in my directory. I haven't answered an unknown number in over a decade. I don't cut the call short, I just let it ring. I'll give a voice mail a look but rarely is any left. I get maybe two unknown calls a week.
I rarely ever get any calls from outside my contacts list. After the Boss Lady had her surgeries I'd get calls from the doctor, hospital, etc, and they'd come through. My call filter blocks known spam calls automatically.

Brain Fart of the Day

Ah my brain fart of the day lately was,I forgot to check in with mom about my wifi service and she said it was about 95% used up, so no more streaming or anything, she does not knew I just factory reset my device oh only yesterday ... OOOPS, but I am glad I was able to back up my main apps and everything else, went super quick, so there was no waiting until it was riden over.. No wonder the wifi was spotty on my cell latey.

Fatalities 2025

I just learned that actor Pat Finn, probably best known from "The Middle," though also from story arcs on "Friends" and "Seinfeld" (and lots of other shows) died of bladder cancer on December 22nd. He was 60.

RIP, Mr. Finn, and thanks for sharing your talents and adding laughter to the world. Condolences to your fans, friends, family and loved ones.

Help Samsung A54, Android 14: How to have the phone announce caller ID to my ear phones?

Sorry for the confusing. Yes the pop-up screen appears, stays, and shows the caller, but the announcement through my bluetooth earpiece is only once and after the first ring. I'd like the caller to be announced more than once.
Best way would be check on your home screen's cellphone icon and acutally look at it.
