Our fax machine was “broken” as in will not turn on until I went to look at it. I pressed the power button and it came on.
...reminds me of when I did tech support for the multimedia company I worked for. Couldn't believe some of the calls we got.
The best one was where someone had been installing the software (back then it came on single sided multiple 5¾ floppies). He mentioned that he inserted disk #1, then disk #2 as instructed, but couldn't fit disk #3 into the drive with the other two that were already in there. Another customer had a machine with one of the new 3½ floppy drives, so they cut the disks down to fit and then called us to complain that they couldn't install the software.
that looks exactly like the kind of device that would send you to the ER asap, adding another cast - or a new one in case you don't have one yet
How about laying on two or three skate boards and "swimming" along the pavement like a lizard? At that height, vertigo shouldn't be a problem.
See..., more than one way to skin a cat.
But it still ends up bad for the cat. 
...actually in spite of the appearance these are pretty stable. I've seen and evne know a number of people who use them and they don't have any issues at all.
How does one use a nail file?
A genius planned that project!
I hope he has to use it often!

He knows when you are sleeping (over at your boyfriend's house)
He knows when you're awake (walking the dog)
He knows if you've been bad or good...
Santa's got nothing on these folks!
Dana
What is that?
Dana
These sound common...I've heard them again and again over the years. Like the one that says somebody used the CD tray as a coffee cup holder.
Dana
My laptop does not have a coffee cup holder.
Oh no the staff is yelling at a client,
new york sports club. they haz em in boston too
i was going when i was walking with a cane. is too much hardship to go in winter on the walker
thor doesnt drink tea. starting to be more in love with dr strange.
Did you sign a contract for a certain amount of time? That's as bad as cable! If you already paid for your membership in full, they don't deserve anythign else, unless you've gone over your membership period, or are paying on a monthly plan. Still, this is crappy! Knowing this, I wouldn't care if they were just down the street from me, I would not join. I'd complain if I were you. But maybe you signed something that told you that and you didn't read it through. They depend on that. Probably how they make most of their money.

...never had that one but in the early days, CDs needed a special caddy to insert them into the drive properly and one time a user complained that his drive wouldn't work after he "inserted the disk in the caddy". After a bit of conversation I discovered that he had unwrapped the Jewel case and forced that with the disk inside into the drive which irreparably damaged the mechanism. Back then a read only CD-ROM drive was a pretty expensive piece of hardware.
Woke up too early but not enough time to go back to sleep.
i was dreaming about mermaids and mermen helping people from a shipwreck but it was difficult to see who needed help or not with all the commotion.
I'm afraid a scooter would necessitate my leaning too far forward which is also a trigger for vertigo. Looks fun though.
Well if my Jnr Brother (life long biker) could on occasion use a eletric mobility scooter, maybe you could have fun with one. Apparently you can buy one looks like a Harley D trike.
Complaint: So many of my contemporaries and remembered celebrities and musicians are dropping dead that I'm afraid I'm going to have to learn who the young'ns are.
Last time I listened to popular music the Moody Blues were on their eighth album "Octave" and disco was still the rage. 
How about hand & knee skates?
or
Big dog and a Red Flyer wagon?
or
Dog drawn sled for winter?
or
A Segway?
or
A big strong Nepalese Sherpa?
Alternatives abound.

this is as cold as it gets right?
Dream on.
20F is positively tropical. I've walked to the school bus stop when the thermometer outside our kitchen window said -30F
Years later as a visitor from Florida to our nation's capital and not properly prepared for the weather I had to walk, in the wee hours of the morning in strong wind from the Washington DC side of the 14th St. bridge (Interstate 66) across the Potomac river to the middle of neighboring Rossyln, VA about 1.3 miles, after a late night of partying. Because the taxi driver refused to take me any farther than the bridge because he wasn't licenced for operation in Virginia. (Why the hell did he pick me up?) The real temperature I found out later was -10F, and who knows what the windchill temperature was. When I got to my hotel my thighs, fingers,feet, ears and nose were numb. I peeled off my jeans and warmed myself in a warm bath for about two hours and still went to bed cold.
And no, I couldn't call another taxi because this was before cell phones existed. The Virgina side was a half mile across the bridge and the nearest phone on the DC side was at least a quarter mile back down off all the bridge ramps possibly somewhere around the Kennedy Center theaters
you know what happens when you renovate restrooms in winter and rent toilet trailors, the water hose freezes,.

My neighbor has a golf cart that looks like a '57 Chevy.
I want the one that looks like a 450SL.
Weather in the mid '60s (F) here. I'm glad, I can ride my motorcycle until lower 40s.
Except for the #@$% rain.

the laughter is dying.
dreading the day personal friends start leaving. is bad enough when they move away. don't wanna be here by myself.
haunted by the voices in hospital pleading to go home. the great ignored. no one is looking out for us.i think of all the drafted young men who sacrificed everything so we can be a free nation. choking up in crying fits over it. a sick old lady in a hospital bed is a weak helpless victim. hospital security goons held me down in the hospital bed to take my pocketbook, pried my fingers open to take my watch off my wrist. took my walker, couldnt make a run for it without my walker. calling 911 from hospital bed brought absolutely no one to help.made me a prisoner without telling me my rights. to this moment i still dont know what my rights were.
It's pretty cool that technology that old still has it. Must have been built to last.
0n the other hand, it's a little sad that these new, amazing discoveries are only possible thanks to the work people did, as he says, two generations ago. How many of them didn't get to see this happen? They weren't all 20-30-somethings, back when.
And on an even sadder note, my generation's greatest heroes are to a large degree already gone. That song Eddie Vedder sings in Twin Peaks season 3 is pretty heartbreaking when you realise he's only around 50, and one of the few surviving singers of a whole genre from a couple of decades ago.
i can't help thinking about Stan Lee not being around for the end game movie. years of movie projects finally coming together
