Crete Carrier - A Year In Review - Fall 2013 Going Forward

Note 3 #1, enclosed in an Otter Box Defender, stepping out to go get something to eat, latched in the locking belt clip, it unclipped from my belt, landed screen first on my step. 30 minutes later, digitizer was black and phone was non-functional

 

I keep mine latched in the holster, yes, but the holster I keep clipped to the sunglass tray above my head (Cascadia, where the CB could also go) for this exact reason. I lost the keys to my air-brake lock because that exact thing happened with my key ring, but I didn't think to look down right away, and drove off. Didn't realize it until the next day when I went to use it.

 

Talkin about dropping phones....The one time I shouldve tossed it, last summer my son and I were fishing off a boat dock and we were both pulling in Catfish left and right to the point where we were throwing back the ones less than 12 inches. We finally ran out of bait and had to call it a day, so I said hold up the rope with the fish we kept so I could get a good pic, had one of those flip-top Convoy phones with 3inch screen, they are advertised as drop proof....I took a step back to get everything in the screen and SPLASH ! I went under and cowboy boots filled up with water and felt like cement blocks SHEEET, I finally struggled to make it back on the dock but the dang phone was fried.....tried putting it in a box of rice for a few days to dry out but no cigar.

 

Roughly what % of the time do ya'll get to bypass open scales with your prepass?

 

80-90% except in GA...100% pulled in there...as with every other truck. It's real nice in places like WY where I just blow on by while all those 75 mph trucks get to go in and show 'em what they got.

I've been thinking of getting Norpass as well...as often as I get to the NW, I would like to bypass them too.

 

Good, we got the debate on, it's on Fox News or Sirius ,

 

I listened to it and it was pretty entertaining. At the same time it's kind of sad that out of 330 million people thats who we get to choose from.

 

It was great to watch, even tuning in late, seems the barmaid wanted to watch it, but they wouldn't let her, unless someone brought it up...
I was impressed watching Trump, Hulklebee, Walker, Rand and Jeb. But then I like Hillary and Bill,and I really like Joe Biden too, I just hope he doesn't run, He's like that crazy uncle we all have.
Ugh, Downtown Los Angeles tommorow,
At least there's no Poly drivers in this state

 

Times like this I am sooooooo glad I use Netflix out here instead of broadcast/satellite tv. Seems like the silly season gets here earlier every election. Pretty soon they'll be campaigning for the next election before they lose this one.

 

True but if your a Democrat you don't even get a choice. That would bother me more.
