However, as of yet not very many app developers or manufacturers have added this functionality to their applications or hardware. Once enabled you […]
Is your Toyota vehicle experiencing delayed-engagement when shifting from Reverse to Drive? After driving Toyota vehicles for over 11 years, starting with a 2005 Toyota Tacoma, followed by a 2010 Toyota Tundra, I have bragged over and over to my friends about how reliable vehicles they are. Not once did either of those vehicles enter […]
For several years I had considered cutting the cord. I mean, I rarely watch anything on TV that couldn’t be streamed from the Internet.

They’re calling your phone illegally. These are […]

I’ve owned pretty much every computer Commodore ever made, except for some of the exotics and for some reason I never cared for the Commodore SX-64. Back in […]
In this Pub Talk, I talk about Stickers and my Camera Gear. You guys have been sending me stickers for months, but I haven’t had a place to put them. I don’t really like putting stickers on my tools either. So recently I built a new set of cabinets for the workshop! A perfect place […]
