Playing with my new phone. It's a two year old model, but still a massive upgrade over my last one.
Can't get Pokemon Go to run on it yet, though.

You want a godawful long alphanumeric sequence. It's what keeps the bad guys out of your personal stuff. Mine is currently a 64 character password based on a 60 character set that includes "special" characters (as limited by my devices), determined, quite literally, by dice rolls. It's a pain in the ass to type in every time I add/change a device, but brute force will hack it sometime between never and the day after.
What I'm up to? Just finished packing and am waiting to do the whole Southwest online check-in thing for my flight tomorrow.

Looking at elf art and changed my avatar. Some here know what I look like, but I think this avatar is what I'd look like if I were magically transformed into an elf.

Not sure the author of the piece knows enough about football to be writing about it:

Some in the organization believe the StubHub Center, in nearby Carson, would potentially be preferable to The Coliseum. It could accommodate only about 30,000 fans but would offer a very intimate, close-to-the-action feel, and that will be under consideration by the team as well if it moves.
The NFL has a 50,000 seat minimum restriction. A 30,000 seat venue would make the move a no-go unless there there were a plan in place to expand the capacity.
Ahhhh. He was a Deadskins beat writer. It makes sense now.

Hmm, good idea. Changed my avatar to what I would look like if I were magically transformed into an elf with horns. IN SPACE.

"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

And a new battery. It shouldn't run flat from lights being left on over lunch, even a long one.

You need to get boobies then. People will be lining up to help you jump your car 
That's 'cause they're looking to jump more than your car.
