No - for the Charge HR you get phone caller ID, but that's it. They released a more advanced one as well that you can get texts and such called the Surge (https://www.fitbit.com/cart?productId=501001). And I'll give updates whenever the hell it ships - the website initiall said it was backordered for 2 weeks, but I ordered it last night and it says "Processing, ready to ship."

PCOS Bill posted:Nah, the faux rock works with the style. It's the arrowslit windows that ruin it to me. I like the house, it reminds me of the cool military housing from the fifties that I used to see when I visited relatives as a kid. But narrow windows are never a good thing. It seems like every loving house gets made with horrible narrow windows now. They must be super cheap or something. Pity they also look super lovely.  Of course, it could be worse - it could be the dreaded 'three horizontal windows' that houses were being built with a few years ago.

Bip Roberts posted:Good call closing on a condo in the most bloated market in a country that's about to get Dutch deceased into a deep recession. I didn't say I bought recently, I was replying to someone who did with my own experience. I bought 10 years ago, have paid off $80,000, seen the value go up $60,000, and unless Vancouver stops being a top 5 sea port in North America I'll be ok. I'm not in some lovely inland suburb with no tangible value, I live on the north shore, near the Pacific ocean where you will never get a condo for under $200k even after it does pop - and you're right, it probably will pop. Thanks for your concern.

I started a new job last week - it's a big step up from my old position and in a much fancier company. To celebrate, I bought my first designer bag. Deadly Ponies is based locally in New Zealand, they use gorgeous deer leather and it's so soft.  For Christmas, I got a little sampler of Chloe fragrances, but I also suddenly remembered that 4711 cologne exists. According to Fragrantica, it was launched in 1792. It's really mild and fresh, slightly citrusy. It's also surprisingly cheap - like NZD$35 for 90mL. Possibly something to do with how dilute the scent seems?  There are also all these cool variants on the original 4711 fragrance. Blood orange and basil seemed right for the hot summer we're having here, but I like the sound of mandarine and cardamon or melissa and verbena as well.

They switched to using scrap leather last year and put out a BS marketing video saying it was more "genuine" and gave the bags more "character", despite the fact that those marks in leather compromise the integrity of the whole piece. Translation; we're raising prices yet again, buying cheaper materials, and making bags that don't look as good and won't last as long. Their bags were great quality and value when they were ~$300 using quality pieces, but $500+ for their new "quality" is pretty poo poo. Your brand new bag can and will have scrapes, marks, scars, etc, and they won't exchange it because that's their "style" now. Their quality control seemed to have poo poo the bed at the same time. On top of all this, the owner turned into the biggest douche in the leather business. If you could buy a good condition used one from about ~2 or more years ago, then sure, grab one, but don't support their new crap. For example; http://imgur.com/a/WgSDB and here's the video where he tries to sell this poo poo as being "leather with character" instead of what it really is, insulting to anyone that knows anything about leather https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WHkdvBKliG8 If you're still not convinced, try swallowing this logic;  Some good alternatives that aren't full of poo poo; http://www.customhide.com/ http://farhorizontraders.com/ http://www.marlondoleather.com/ http://www.leydenandsons.com/ Bottom Liner has a new favorite as of 15:10 on Jan 13, 2015 |

 My first tube amp. Holy crap, the notes sing. Also, found good prices on used  Delay Pedal and  Phaser Pedal. Turn on my amp and all my pedals now and it sounds like going through a loving time warp.

I got one back in 2011 and was very interested to hear why it was a lovely bag because it has worked out amazing so far...but I'm glad to see that's not the case. No marks on mine at all when I received it fwiw.

Night Danger Moose posted:I bought this last week too, it should get delivered tomorrow. Can't wait. Does it really have as much room as it says it does? I've been using the backpack version for the past couple years and it's never let me down. It is so big and comfortable that I end up carrying stupid poo poo I will never need, but that and the decal are my only complaints. I ended up unstitching it since I don't play board games, and people would come up to me talking gibberish thinking I did.
