Phone Overboard

Well, today was not a good one for me. I started out having a great day – we went fishing at the Lake. Didn’t really expect to catch anything, but it has been so warm that getting the jon boat out sounded like a good idea. So we spent 3 hours putting worms on hooks and didn’t catch a thing. On the way back to the boat ramp, I leaned over to check the motor and PLOP! My cell phone jumped out of my pocket and went overboard. Totally my own fault – can’t even yell at anyone.

GPS Helped

Most of the time I need to go someplace locally that I already know both where it is and how to get there. But now thee are some parts of town that are new and I’ve not had the need to go over there yet. That’s when a GPS can come in handy. It’s not that I can’t ask for directions, but with a GPS I should not have to ask.

An App for That

Commercials are always talking about all these “apps” that you can get. I know they are mostly for the new expensive smart phones, which I don’t have. But some of these apps look pretty cool. I’d be interested in upgrading my phone if anyone from the phone company would bother to give me a call and make me an offer on that. But it seems the phone company doesn’t care what kind of phone I use or what I pay for my cell phone service each month. They made their initial sale and put my ass on ignore.

Antivirus Nuisance

Sometimes I miss the old days of the computer and internet. You know, when no one had to worry about hackers and viruses. It was such a cool new thing and then some jerks had to come along and ruin it for everyone. Now you have to be careful about viruses and malware and hackers and be paranoid all the time. That just takes the shine right off of everything for me.

Ear buds

All these kids wearing earbuds while they listen to their music on their iPods and MP3 players have me puzzled. How can they stand to have those things in their ears all the time? I have tried all kinds of brands and styles but I don’t like those earbuds. They make my ears itch and drive me nuts.
