So I got the old dashboard back, but yet again I see "this will be removed in about a month."
NO, DON'T REMOVE IT. GRRR. It wasn't broken, don't fix.

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF
Well, I was going to post something else, but after logging into the backside of my blog, I see Google has crammed the "new look" down my throat without asking me if I really wanted it. Which I don't.
So instead of a post about my long ordeal with my car repeatedly breaking down, it will be this short rant.

I got hung up by a Telephone survey person!
I don't usually answer the phone anymore due to telemarketers (even though we're on the No Call list), or the usual idiot trying to sell me a credit card I didn't ask for, and lately about the only calls I'd get are political crap or a survey.
At about 3:19 pm, the phone rings and I answer it. Some guy who obviously speaks as though English isn't his native language introduces himself as some person representing some marketing research group, and he's conducting a survey about fast food. Well, it happens to be one of my favorite subjects, and I tell him that. Pretty much. Apparently, he's not prepared for that sort of answer and says something like "What?" and I say "let's do it." meaning Let's do this survey. I don't know if he understood my response, but I got summarily hung up on. Usually it's me doing that!!
Well, if you didn't want to do the survey, why did you call me?? I'm going to keep an eye on my phone bill in case this ends up being a scam.
