I’ll be opting out on day one. I’d rather have an imperfect assistant than one who passes my recordings along to strangers without my knowledge.

My 24 hour review of my new Beats Solo 3: QA only tested these on people with small heads or they totally missed the boat on comfort. Great sound, viselike grip.

you will be disappointed with the amount you receive and you won’t get the free credit monitoring
Garbage. I don’t want monitoring from the bozos who let a hack go on for months.

The lamp of the body is the eye. If your eye is sound, your whole body will be filled with light; but if your eye is bad, your whole body will be in darkness. And if the light in you is darkness, how great will the darkness be.

On Safari
July 30,2019My parents were in town this past weekend, and we decided to load up and go to the drive-thru safari. It’s a huge preserve with driving trails snaking through the pastures. The animals travel in groups and are largely permitted to wander at will. It was a hot day, so many were playing in the water or resting in the shade of trees. Still, they’re conditioned to being fed by the cars, so they were more than happy to get up in hopes of being fed. The kids had a wonderful time. Even more special, with our visit coming much later in the season than our first one, many of the herds travelled with their young. My favorite was a group of 13 tiny emu running around with their mom.
