Â*Problem is, Â*I haven't a clue what the hell I am going to do with it." My #2 son gave me one of the compact lithium ion battery jumpers/chargers after I complained of loosing out on two cruises on my new boat due go low battery chargelast summer. It's rated at 700 amps and supposedly will jump start a 5 liter gasoline engine. Seems small for that but time will tell. |

'Cause it might just tell him what he could do with it! We asked Siri on my daughter's phone to flip a coin. Normally she'll come back with a 'heads' or 'tails', but this time she came back with, "The coin fell into a crack." Later we asked 'which is better, this or that?' Her response, "I'm not feeling very decisive today." |

I downloaded and installed the app for it and it works. Problem is, I haven't a clue what the hell I am going to do with it. You could ask what the difference is between a fan and a follower of jesus...considering the season... I got curious as to how all this stuff works and dug into it a bit. Almost wished I hadn't. I didn't know this but Google keeps a record of *everything* you use your cell phone for ... at least the Android powered phones. In an obscure menu on my phone I found a "My Activity" log. It had records, including some audio files of voice mails and of my voice using the "Ok, Google" feature of everything I searched for, websites visited, contacts, how many times I called someone, .... even how many times I used "PitchLite" .. a guitar tuner app. I found a way to start deleting them only to discover the record files dated back to *July 4th*. I already knew that Google sells marketing data to companies that indicate your interests, but I had no idea how extensive and complete the records they keep were. Others do this ... Amazon for example ... and the next thing you know you are getting specific and directed ads in your Facebook newsfeed. I don't think I like having so much information being shared ... usually without your knowledge. I found a way to opt out of the Amazon reporting and for Facebook using these directed marketing ads, but I suspect it's only the tip of the iceberg. |

The one I had, which was supposedly a good one, wouldn't turn over the Yamaha 150 when I needed it. Now I keep a Battery Tender connected. Keeps the batteries well charged. |

I wouldn't bring it up if you didn't jump on everyone's (except Harry, for some reason) typos all the time. |
