      I recommend an app called White Noise that my wife and I use to book out/distract from unwanted sounds.

        iPhone 8 screens are as slick as ice.  My office mailbox is located on a marina on Lake Union in Seattle.  This morning when grabbing the mail I pulled my phone out of my pocket and dropped it on the marina.  Phone then proceeded to slide right into the lake….  Was able to fish it out with a net.  Last time I don't buy Applecare.

          All modern smartphones are slippery glass-sandwiches and a case is mandatory for better handling. It does ruin the looks of any phone, though.

            I can't imagine how difficult it is to deal with vertigo.  I heard the Brandt-Daroff Exercise is quite helpful.

              Thanks @Omega Man I’ll take any recommendations. It is improving, but it’s a slow process.  Thank you

                Did you see an Ear,Nose and Throat doctor? The spins/rotational vertigo is the worst. That’s what I had,but it was random. It was called Benign Positional Vertigo,because it was brought on by a certain head movement.

                        nothing benign about it. Hope it clears soon @Matty123

                                    I really couldn't do anything but laugh the situation was so ridiculous.  I could literally look down to the bottom and see my phone sitting there with the screen on.  Wish I got a picture but obviously didn't have a phone.

                                    I guess I was due.  I got my first cell phone going into college in 2004, yesterday was the first time I have ever had to prematurely replace a phone due to damage.  Every other time I've replaced a phone it was after a solid 3-5 years of use and was retired because it was fried.

                                      I got my first cell phone in 2000, and it is the only one I've ever broken.  I dropped it on a hardwood floor from about 2-3 feet, and initially, everything seemed fine.  It wasn't until the next day that I discovered the 7, 8, and 9 buttons had stopped working.  Doh!

                                          Thanks @ROman my MRI has been postponed while my health insurance company collects more info from my doctors. A hassle,  but it is what it is. Regardless, I’ve missed a week of work and tomorrow I have to work, even if I can’t drive myself there.  ???
