All of these are apps I literally never use. They are just taking up all kinds of space on my phone. I can't disable them or heaven forbid delete their useless asses. The phone only has 16GB or memory and less than 5GB is free after installing the apps I do use and the bloated operating system with all of it's fancy transitions and animations that I can't stand. Did I forget to mention that the keyboard is oversized and I literally could not read it? Well I had to download another one to get around that. Not to mention that the menus are hard as hell to read for me now. The transition to Android 5 on the Galaxy S4 was hellish to me. I love the freedom with Android, but this is making me long for my iPhone. But the limitations of the iPhone in an unjailbroken state are way too limiting. So I will put up with the bother of this new set-up. How about you get ride of these craptacular colours on the menus and that horrible keyboard and give me back the high contrast mode that make me able to actually use the darn thing? Hell the update sucked about 1GB of storage from the phone. I can't see anything useful here thank you. Bloated and hard to read for my old eyes. Would have been nice to have more room on the phone in the first place. And being that the new ones do NOT have a card slot, why would I want to go with another Galaxy? My next one will be something that allows a card and is water resistant. I have this undying fear of dropping my coffee on it.

RAMPAGE COFFEE CO RIOT BLEND REVIEW

Image
  Rampage Coffee Co. is located in Saskatoon Saskatchewan and is a small batch coffee roasting company that makes 3 different and very unique blends. The company is still small and the owners still work in other jobs. They are also very community minded and donate part of the profits to upstart artists, musicians and the like. Today I fired up a fresh ground pot of "Riot Coffee". I had to say it was a very enjoyable experience. There was a very fresh taste to the coffee, a lot more fresh that I have ever had the pleasure to experience in the past. Also had hints of caramel and chocolate in the background. The acidity was low compared to a lot of coffee I have had and it was only slightly bitter. It was a smooth cup of coffee and the aroma was wonderful and full bodied. This is how I would like coffee to be. You can't expect to get any more fresh than this. It is made per order on a Monday, packaged on a Tuesday then mailed out on a Wednesday. Depend...

Top 20 Deli Meats (Cold Cuts) Rated

Image
I found a list of the top 20 cold cuts in the world. That head cheese got into this list makes me wonder what so called normal people think is good food. This is of course keyed to my tastes only and may not be how you see it. For example, Dad loved Bologna above all other cold cuts, and would fry it black and make sandwiches with tomato and Kraft sandwich spread. Sometimes the bread of toasted. On a side note, literally ONLY white bread of served to us at home as young folks and so on. The idea of eating brown bread was out of the question. BTW Mom's favorite cold cut was Olive Loaf. My perfect 10 no longer exists and it was called Onion Loaf. Nothing will ever replace Onion Loaf in my mind. 1 Turkey Breast 4/10 2 Ham 5/10 3 Roast Beef 2/10 4 Salami 7/10 5 Bologna 3/10 6 Chicken Breast 4/10 7 Prosciutto 9/10 8 Pastrami 8/10 9 Pepperoni 7/10 10 Mortadella 7/10 11 Corned Beef 4/10 12 Capicola 7/10 13 Liverwurst 6/10 14 Soppressata 8/10 15 Chorizo 6/10 16 Genoa 7/10 17 Pork Roll 2/10...
