    my first smartphone is this iPhone 5, which is super awesome.

    I can upgrade too, but I can't see how the 6 could be better. I'm holding the Holy Grail now,

    Let me know what you think of the 6.

    I had an 2045 appointment at C&S wholesale in Stockton CA. Parked on the street after unloading. Next up is a Monday morning pickup at Helm, Ca going to Cucamonga. While California is not exactly my favorite place, at least the weather here is nice.

    I hope you're going to spend the night in Ripon at the Loves and walk over to Esmeraldas restaurant and have a shot or 3 of Claze Azul Reposado for me.

    Seconded. Hope it isn't anything (real) serious. Dealing with the eyes is always so, but I hope and pray it is more routine.
