December 9, 2014 AsktheBuilder Newsletter & Tips
I intended to get this newsletter out to you sooner today, but I’ve been dealing with a completely BORKED (dead, keeps crashing, melts down, etc.) new Nexus 4 cell phone.
I spent hours following all the instructions online to clear the cache, take it back to factory settings and even do a hard reboot from the DOS screen.
I even summoned my fellow wizards here in New Hampshire to cast a protective spell on it. Nothing worked. I sent it back and am now waiting for my refund to be processed.
Anyway, I’ve got some cool stuff in today’s issue for you.
I know, I can hear you, “Tim, I’ll be the judge of that.”
I’ll have some additional gift ideas for you on Friday. Remember, you can help make this newsletter better by doing your shopping at Amazon through my affiliate link.
