Send it back to the store you bought it from and ask for a replacement.

About a month ago I was over a mates place, watching the footy and was well past three sheets to the wind.
I'm was told by my daughter I agreed to go on an open water fishing trip and handed over the AUD$160.00 on the spot.
Well I don't like fishing so have no elephanting idea what was going through my head.
So yesterday I was up at 03:00, on the road before 04:00 to pick up said mate and was at Terrigal just after 05:30. Turns out we didn't have to be there until 06:00 and kicked off about 06:30.
The mate couldn't find the Travelcalms for me before we left, though afterwards admitted they were in his bag but couldn't find then at the time.
So for the first hour and a bit we were only about 2km off the coast catching bait fish. The boat was jumping around all over the place and my guts were ironclad, all was good.
Then we head out further, the sea is calmer and I start throwing up so hard I'm pretty sure I had to poke my own a***hole back in with the end of one of the fishing rods.
So now some elephant comes out with a Travelcalm for me. Thanks for elephanting nothing.
So I spent the whole trip lying down and thankfully no more chundering. Think we got off the boat about 16:00.
I was told we were about 30km off shore at the furthest point. After getting off the boat I downed a large hot chips and three patato scallops with extra chicken salt. Nothing had tasted so good before and I still can't believe greasy sh*t is the best for crook guts.
Finally got home around 19:00 and in bed at 20:00. Up this morning and feel like I have run a marathon. If I had actually got around to the fishing and all the jigging required I probably wouldn't be able to type this post.

Doing daft things when pissed is par for the course!
If you look at the google street view link burn[^], you will see a small burn flowing under the road where the streetview camera is.
Me and a mate, came out the casino one night about 4.30am in the middle of winter and for whatever reasons decided to see how far we could get down the tunnel which ran under the houses. Now, I had been down the tunnels before as a kid, but with torches, and the tunnel goes in about 100m before turning left and running down the certain of the road (Osbourne) before appearing again briefly further on (you can see it a couple of times on the map appear and disappear).
On this occassion, we headed off, no torches, running into the darkness feet soaked, freezing cold. Next thing, "Thump & Splash" there was a pipe running across the tunnel and I ran into it head first and then went backwards into the water. Picking myself and the two of us in stitches laughing, carried on, we got past the corner, but by now it was impossible to see your fingers in front of your face. The bottle went and we headed back out. The thought of getting lost down there didn't appeal and think the sobering up may have started to kick in! We came out the tunnel, but rather than just call it quits, we headed the other way which is more open, and went to see how far west we could go. That was an epic adventure through barbed wire fences, folks gardens, more short tunnels and cross country in the North Burn [^](west on the map).
In all, I think we had spent about an hour in the burn. Still do not know what triggered off the desire to explore the burn....the demon drink! All the pubs/casinos were well closed by this time and we had managed to flag a taxi and head back to his for pizza and more booze.
After eventually seeing a mirror when got home, I had a massive lump and graze on my forehead where I had run into the pipe.
Needless to say the GF's weren't that impressed with our evening adventures. Maybe that's why they are both ex's now, they clearly just didn't appreciate the spirit of adventure!
I want to go back down the tunnels again someday, but next time will be fully armed with megawatt torches and wellies!

As Dave Auld says, when inebriated we all do ... um ... strange things.
Herself and I woke up one Xmas Eve and went downstairs to find the whole living room was filled with a Xmas tree. A very big Xmas tree. After a few cups of coffee we began to recall where it came from...we decided about 2AM to get a tree, so out we went armed with a Swiss Army knife (fortunately - or not - one of those with a wood saw built in) and we found one in someone's garden, so we sawed it down and brought it home, trying to be quiet as mice, but failing miserably.
Never did find out who we "borrowed" the tree from, but once I'd cut a few feet off the thing so it would stand up and bought a huge amount of decorations it looked very pretty...for a week or so.

In my old hometown there was a guy owning a bit of forest outside of town, and it was "rumoured" that people went to his forest to get their Christmas trees from there.
He got quite tired of that so he started to go "hunting" during the weeks before Christmas. And whenever he met someone carrying a tree he just simply said, that'll be 200 crowns.
Which was a serious overprice in those times. But you don't discuss prices when you're caught red-handed by someone carrying a shotgun.
Needless to say, his forest was left alone in the years to come.

If I could have found the source garden - and we tried - I would have gladly made reparations. But either we went further afield than I believed we could have staggered in a reasonable time or we dug up the stump and re-landscaped the garden...

Thanks for the laugh. I needed that. 
As for the greasy food, we used to always go to greasy spoons after a night of hard drinking.
Thanks for the story.

And whose going to replace Ewen? Sound like a senior players revolt which is never productive.

well they're all about the NSW coach - but if i were him i'd wait until after the RWC, plus he is very green....so perhaps Larkham as a caretaker. That'd certainly change the dynamics as he's an ex player.

True, at least it kept me in the seat and glued to the match. I walked out on the last one, I hate one sided games where Oz are getting their butts whipped.

Sounds like a wonderful day, Michael; the worst day fishing is better than the best day working, as they say. After the first time out on a boat in childhood, I haven't been bothered with seasickness in all the years since, so perhaps you'll never feel it again.

I'm about to move into the land of Docsis 3.0 and need a new one. After filtering my cable co's approved list by Docsis 2 and ipv4 only, I had a list of 5 options:
Arris WBM760A Touchstone Cable Modem WBM760A x x
Arris CM820A Touchstone Cable Modem CM820A
Motorola SB6120 Motorola SURFboard SB6120 Cable Modem
Motorola SB6121 Motorola SURFboard SB6121 DOCSIS 3.0 Cable Modem
Ubee DDM3513 Ubee (formerly Ambit) DOCSIS 3.0 Cable Modem
My default assumption would be that it's SB6121 that I want; but figured I'd ask the peanut gallery before giving Amazon my $70.
PS I know it's not the newest model available; but I don't want to give the weasels any excuse to blame me for their problems because i bought something not on their list.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?
