In the old days of 360|Conferences my business partner and I would travel and text each other when we landed, “White or brown eagle, has landed.” I assume you know which one I was.

Given the times now, I’ve been self conscious wearing mine. So….
Few minutes with my sewing kit and now I’m a sales rep for Weyland Yutani.

I had to disable all of this to prevent firefox from phoning home about my location to a 3rd-party weather service I don't want to use. Because if you click on the "hide weather" thing, IT STILL PHONES HOME.
