  70. I tried pumping up my bicycle&apos;s inner tube up after removing the tire in an effort to locate a hole in it, but I had no such luck.
  71. I got the inner tube wet to make any air coming out more visible, but the inner tube seemed to actually be retaining its air.
  72. Hoping that something had just been jammed in the valve before, and that the inner tube was actually functional, I tried riding the bicycle to the credit union to pick up some much-needed cash.
  73. The inner tube held out to the credit union, but it was in no condition to ride back home on.
  74. The air is coming out still, but too slowly to see.
  75. Without knowing where the hole is, I cannot patch it.
  76. My only choice is to buy a brand new inner tube later.

  79. My wireless service with Straight Talk gave up the ghost today at work.
  80. Now&apos;s the time to get in touch with a Cricket Wireless representative and make the switch.
  81. I&apos;m no fan of Cricket or AT&amp;T, but the T-Mobile network doesn&apos;t reach Coos Bay.

  84. As we were cleaning up at work for the night, I found an ugly spider walking on our chicken wing sauce bottles.
  85. After catching it in a small clear cup with a lid, one of my coworkers said it was likely a brown recluse.
  86. She confirmed with a photograph from the Internet and a second coworker recognized it as a brown recluse as well.
  87. That was pretty scary, it could have been pretty bad if any of us had been bitten.
