72 is Coming

We are supposed to drop below 80F in a few days. Whoo hoo. That means we are moving back towards our winter temps.

We still do not have smartphones. Based on that, these so-called phablets may have moved on to the next big thing before we get started.















Now, some of these photos are pretty funny and real. This pushes my Millard Fillmore references to two weeks in a row. Some of them, I think, were doctored. How about you? Time travel, anyone?

I know that some of you love your Starbucks favorites. I have tried a few myself. However, I don't know that I would try some of them after seeing these depictions of what is in a few. It is an interesting way to compare the drinks to other common foods or drinks.

I called SS last night to find out if a Whole Foods Market was close to where our Chorale concert was. He noted, "That is why you need to have your own smartphone." Instead, it seems I have my own smart aleck. Anyway, this article talks about using one as a GPS, even if you are offline. Have any of you tried it?

I did not have time last night to research alternatives for lowering that cable bill (which, admittedly, includes home phone, internet, and cable). I think I have options of Verizon FiOS, DirecTV, Dish, Century Link, or even Netflix, Hulu Plus or Amazon Prime with Apple TV or Roku. Even if we make a TV change, I may stay with them for internet.

Not much to share today, so I won't prolong the agony, and the ecstasy of moving on to more important endeavors is always so sweet (how about the clever literary reference, huh?). Have a good Hump Day.
