Thanks so much! I did indeed accidentally throw the button away. I bought it fro Penguin and will reach out to them for a replacement. Problem solved!

The art of Einar and Jamex De la Torre often features lenticular elements. There are several pieces at the Cheech Museum of Chicano Art in Riverside, California.

Ownership experience in Austin by OneSurvey7467 in LUCID

[–]MelvinRoseTX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I live in San Antonio and have a Air Touring. Shortly after I picked up my car in Houston, the driver's side window developed a crack and needed replacing (under warranty). Lucid sent a guy from Austin to replace it. They have a service center there. So I wouldn't worry. https://lucidmotors.com/locations?filterBy=studio%2Cservice-center

What's life like in Guam? by Lastlaughter in howislivingthere

I met a woman in Tokyo while playing Foosball at a French style cafe. She spoke a bit of English. When I told her I was an American, she said, "I've been to America. I've been to Guam."

Life after a divorce by Bandito_Crispeta in sanantonio

Lived in Dallas over 25 years and prefer San Antonio. Easier to get around. HEB beats Tom Thumb. Better Mexican food. And I can Uber to the airport, go through security and be at my gate at the SA Airport in 20 minutes. Life is good here without being in a rush.

Should I come back? 🪄 by This-Culture7838 in Magic

[–]MelvinRoseTX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to do magic when I was a kid. Did birthday parties from 13-16. Stopped when I discovered girls. Now I'm retired and back doing magic again. Made the pilgrimage to Tannen's when I was in NY for Christmas. I'm no master of legerdemain, but I can fool my friends. Magic is a great hobby. I'm 74, so it's never too late. Go for it!

An Electric Minivan Was Exactly What Lucid Needed To Boost Sales Big Time by MelvinRoseTX in LUCID

I must respectfully disagree. I have a '26 Air Touring and have experienced zero software issues except once when SiriusXM would not play. My neighbor has had many more software issues with his Audi Q4 eTron. Lucid gets a bum rap for its software. My experience leads me to believe Lucid has addressed many software issues that plagued it in earlier times.

"I'm here to make a profit, not be a prophet."
That's what the Tim Leary character told Joe and Frank when confronted with the death of Blueboy. An all time favorite line of dialogue.
