Reminds me of where I called home for a couple of years

A wise friend once told me, if you are under 30 and not a Democrat (Socialist) you have no heart and if you are over 40 and not a Republican (Capitalist) you have no brain.

I just noticed on my Echo Show that Christie's Auction sold a T-Rex Skeleton for $31.8 Million USD online.

I usually don't like sub-titles, but this one was well worth it. What a survivor!

Take a few minutes to read this page now and it may save you a lot of headaches later. If nothing else, it tells you how to get around the pop-up so you have a chance to resolve it. Above All - Do Not Call the Phone Number They Give You, it is NOT Microsoft.

Off-Topic / Have you tried switchmail.com yet?

« on: September 24, 2020, 10:15:41 am »Message ID: 1340128

I did a Tap Research Survey this morning that led me to search for ways to do physical mail from a website. You deposit funds for postage, then upload a PDF or DOCX file to send to any USPS address and send it.

Sounds like the ultimate solution for those who have more money than time. No buying stamps or going to the Post Office to send it. Do everything right from your home computer.

I am almost curious enough to try it, so I thought I would ask around and see if anyone else has.

Off-Topic / Closer to the truth?

« on: September 19, 2020, 02:27:31 pm »Message ID: 1339577

A man was looking for a place to sit in a crowded university library.

He asked a girl: "Do you mind if Take the seat beside you?

The girl replied, in a loud voice, "No, I don't want to spend the night with you!"

All the people in the library stared at the man, who was deeply embarrassed and moved to another table.

After a couple of minutes, the girl walked quietly to the man's table and said with a laugh: "I study psychology, and I know what a man is thinking; I bet you felt embarrassed, right?"

The man responded in a loud voice: "$500 for one night? ..... I'm not paying that much"

All the people in the library looked at the girl in shock.

The man whispered to her: "I study law, and I know how to screw people".

FusionCash / Oh No, not another Covid 19 Survey

That's what I thought when I started the latest one from University of Oklahoma, but I was pleasantly surprised when it went very logically and paid $1 on completion.

Off-Topic / Sending a Fax

« on: July 23, 2020, 05:44:58 pm »Message ID: 1333099

For Your Information (just in case)

This is the second time this month I had to send a fax when nothing else would work. It went to my Medical Insurance person that has been helping me with my recovery and her management will not allow then to receive emails, visit web pages, etc. from patients, so the only way I can send her a message is to type it into an app on my smartphone (UGGG!!). Bottom Line: I typed up the information and printed it as a pdf from WordPad, then used GotFreeFax.com to fax it to her.

I looked at a ton of so called free fax services, but they are only a free trial if you give them your credit card info so they can automatically bill you if you don't cancel in time, No Thanks.

GotFreeFax does charge me 98 cents for up to 10 pages (some charge that per page including the cover page), but after all the traps like that I saw, GotFreeFax went right to the top of my list. I don't need to fax often, but when I do they will be my first click.

FusionCash / Objectionable Survey Question

« on: July 17, 2020, 06:52:51 am »Message ID: 1332532

They asked me how I would improve a survey I took this morning, so I left this comment.

Rephrase the question asking if I smoked over 100 cigarettes in my life, when the last one was in 1964 and I object to being reminded how stupid I was back then.

FusionCash / Daily Routine

« on: July 01, 2020, 07:54:17 am »Message ID: 1330492

One of the questions on a survey asked me for my daily routine and it got me thinking.

> Get up, click for pennies, take a walk, eat, take a nap, wash, rinse and repeat

I added this to my AutoHotKey and used it several times already to grab another penny.

Support / Screen Captures

« on: June 24, 2020, 09:21:45 am »Message ID: 1329589

I have used Jing from Techsmith for many years to do quick screen captures and videos that I can add annotations to on the fly, but since Flash is being discontinued this year, they decided to come out with a new upgraded version called Capture.

I installed it this morning and found a quick video on YouTube to watch and I was blown away. It's a free download from a trusted company, so even if you just need a way to show your cashout for the bonus, you will love this for it's simplicity.
