Thank you very much!

So simple so effective, I am always motivated by appreciation, and will do good work tomorrow.

Excellent!

Fridays make me happy... Especially around 3pm. Holidays are pretty darn good too.

Surely you jest, sir?

Hey man, don't knock it. You may already have won £250,000.

Sadly, I do not. AARP beats Reader's Digest, National Geographic, and the rest of the pack, hands down.
I receive their crap almost daily.

I replaced the battery in my iPhone 4S with a $9 ebay cheapie last night. It was meticulous work, and I even bought a cheap magnification visor to enable me to see the tiny screws. But it was fairly easy. Charged the phone overnight, and the battery is performing really well this morning. My contract is up in January so I had to make this phone last until then. The original battery was basically shot. It would give me a day in standbye, or about 45 minutes of use. The new battery has given me 45 minutes this morning and is at 97%.

Please don't leave that cheapie battery charging unattended. Also don't overcharge, if you can avoid it.

Those cheapies tend to burst into flame, explode and shit. Although, I don't think they're as bad about that as they used to be.
