It's all about choices, Faith. The ones we make, and the ones we don't. Oh, and the consequences. Those are always fun.

My first guess was an app to prevent you from playing Metal Machine Music....

Mine was an app for taking a walk on the wild side.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Heh. So if you think you're James Dean for a day, it will correct you. Plus it will suggest Valium for when you have to crash after speeding away.

Gud, have you bought a GPS yet? Here's one on sale: Magellan Maestro 4700 4.7-Inch Widescreen Bluetooth Portable GPS Navigator for $149.99 + Free Shipping (Regular Price: $199.99)

eta: Bad link. Anyone wants it, lemme know and I'll dig up the correct link.

I went ahead and got the Garmin 205w. I had a $50 gift certificate to Newegg and they had free shipping so the total cost to me was $50.

That seems like a pretty good deal though.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

My FiL bought that same Magellan after TG because it was "on sale" somewhere for $150, "down from $250." (We didn't need one, but he seems to think he was up $100, despite being a finance academic.) But it was $150 wherever you looked. I think that sale is illusory.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Once it arrives, check out this site for three additional voices. I like "Dr. Nightmare."

I almost want a GPS just so I can have Snoop Dogg tell me where to go.

I would choose the dulcet tones of George Clooney, or Laurence Fishburne as Morpheus. I swear, if I could have the latter, I would buy a GPS tomorrow.
