To see his DH put velcro on the stereing wheel and mounted it there.I'm picturing it velcroed to the center of the wheel. Is it covering the horn? I hope he doesn't have an airbag. That could be dangerous. I hope I'm wrong in how I'm picturing it.
'Day' is a vestigial mode of time measurement based on solar cycles. It's not applicable. I didn't get you anything.

No thoughts on the best laptop for a venerable oldster?
I have so little experience with pcs, I would hate to recommend a lemon. In fact, she was saddled with a terrible Compaq for 2 years of tech woes.
I'd love to point her to something good. Anybody have a favorite?

Alas, bonny, my experience with laptops is confined to the Thinkpads we used at work years ago, and my lone iBook.
There are a lot of new-ish netbooks out there now, which are pretty stripped down, and most importantly INEXPENSIVE. Howver, it sounds like she wants a bigger screen because of vision issues, right?

I think our Garmin is a nuvi and I like it a lot. It does it's job well and we used it to drive from VA to NM.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Is anyone on a no-contract cell phone plan? Feel like offering recommendations?

I used Virgin Wireless for a long time and was very happy with it. They use the Sprint network, if you know what coverage for that is like in your area.

Oh, and I should mention I want the internet on the phone. Nay, need the internet, especially if I'm going to survive in my new job.

I had that too - neat little phone that flipped on the long side and had a full qwerty keyboard. I miss that phone. (It did not survive being dropped in a rushing water during a big storm.)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Conan O'Brien gets Ajay Bhatt to talk trash about Firewire. Okay, not really. But Conan interviews the *real* co-creator of the USB port, not the actor from the Intel ads. Apparently their rock-stars aren't like their rock-stars either.
