Apparently if you walk into one of their pick-up places, they don't bother to look up your order -- they simply call the police :-(

So I go this afternoon to the Amazon Pick-up place at Clark & Diversey. I went simply to get my order of a case for my cellphone. Unfortunately, not so for the awful staff - they called the police & dragged me out of the place. Is this how they treat customers? Sorry, but no way!

[Leo Robert Klein @leoklein]

Wow, lost my phone over a week ago and today was contacted to find out when and where I could pick the thing up. Incredible 😲...

[Leo Robert Klein @leoklein]

Yup, it's that time (to dance) ...

Was hungry and really needed a snack -- when I remembered: ooh, still got carmel-corn stashed away in the kitchen! Yummy! Yummy! 🙂

What's that noise in the sky? Have the martians arrived finally?

Only 1 thing to say: Pigeons of the world, Unite!

You know, this rain coming down -- why is it always water? I want hamburgers!!! 🙂

Age of the Cell-Phone Battery: So I was out and headed to the supermarket when I noticed my cell-phone was conked out! Battery she no work. So what did I do? Why, head back home to charge the thing. In this day & age, no outdoor excursion without the communication device.

[Leo Robert Klein @leoklein]

Yup, still living -- still dancing...

'July 24 2026' marks the 99th anniversary of daddy's 1st radio show 'Germania Broadcast'. Production continued thru the late '60s. The website I put together has a number of boo-boo's (I'm currently working on them) but the site is still available: https://t.co/s57R0DrcY0
