I don't have a smart phone. If I take a photo with my flip phone and want to post it on line, I simply text it to my GF. She emails it to me and I download it to my computer.
I am also having a hard time believing the apparent lack of a digital camera and/or a computer with a camera. I am one of the lowest tech people I know and even I have those things.
This just doesn't pass the sniff test, but what else is new?

If you can use the internets you can surely find some way of putting up a picture without your nephew coming all the way from Prague to show you how. This is ridiculous, just buy an LHT already!

Same thing minus the phone (none of my phones has been able to take photos and I currently don't use a phone) It isn't that hard to get a picture of your bike these days. I am sure everyone has a friend with a camera or smartphone w/camera or something like that. If not that a neighbor or work colleague.

Now if you will excuse me, I need to do some prep for my four-day tour that starts on Thursday.

hahah! you still believe there's a 920 in squiggy's mom's basement?
bike was allegedly picked up a week ago! .........dude claims to have
dropped $2500 (of somebody else's money) on his dream bike, and so
far has done one 5-minute toodle around the neighborhood?
i'll give you two possibilities:
1. trying to get the spokes fixed that popped when he hit that
speedbump, or
2. still trying to figger out how to copy photos from stranger's facebook page.

You know how have vices and bad habits such as watching reality tv, reading gossip magazines, heroin? Well, I can't say I have any, but I wait excitedly for the next iterations of squeezys rampages. Every new post is like a pandoresque christmas box. Maybe that's where the name squeezebox comes from.

BF is trying out a new gimmick, something like hanna barbara
did with their saturday morning cartoons.
you know how the justice league and space ghost and the
wonder twins always seemed too serious (at least for 5-year
olds) so they'd always have some little monkey (or strange
alien creature) in a wee, tiny superhero outfit for comic
relief?
or star wars! yeah, that's the ticket. star wars had ewoks!
here ya go..........ewok riding his new "gravity grinder"!

You know, next time squeeze if you feel insulted, report it instead of reacting inappropriately. Insults earn infractions.
But instead, now that it's unlikely the jackals will drop the issue, the thread is doomed and hereby closed.
Report the guys next time . . . I love jackals.
