I had three FitBits, but they didn't last long. That's why I had three. And they were cheap. I've given up on smart watches and fitness trackers. Knowing what time it is is enough for me.

I thought this was funny. Before I bought the cell phone that's arriving next week, I watched lots of reviews. Not one of them even mentioned the phone capabilities. Reviews used to say something about the sounds from the mic and the speaker. Now, the camera and the apps are all that matter.

I get a kick out of hearing stories about creepy creatures that people have reported seeing. Why do they always have red, glowing eyes? It's not like flashbulb "redeye." The glow comes from within. I'm sure that scientists would love to examine one of these creatures and find out why their eyes are glowing.

And another thing - Why do UFOs have so many lights? Reports often say these ships had lights all over them, sometimes white and sometimes different colors. On earth, planes and boats use minimal lighting, so why do alien spacecraft need so many lights?

In my humble opinion, people are too quick to believe nonsense, but they are skeptical of scientifically proven facts. If another intelligent species ever evolves on earth after we're gone, I hope they are more intelligent.

I ordered a Samsung Galaxy Fit 3 multipurpose watch from Amazon. Like many other devices, it needs a cell phone app in order to work. I was able to install the app on both of my phones, but after scanning for it, neither phone could find the watch. I tried this over a period of several hours, trying tips suggested online. What's odd is that the cell phone knew it was paired with the watch, but scanning didn't work, so I couldn't set up the watch.

I see this trend as a major problem for electronics. I have a new (old) cell phone arriving next week, and I am hoping it will be able to connect with two small cameras. If not, the phone goes back. I watched several demos of the watch on YouTube, and no one mentioned a problem pairing watch and phone. According to what I read online, not only is pairing a problem, but losing the pairing causes the watch to lose current information, and you have to try to pair it again.

Thanks. It's nice seeing them perform.

I might buy a ticket for this. https://shadowlandstages.org/million-dollar-quartet/

Tomorrow night, I'm going to see "Great Balls of Fire" at the Shadowland Theater.

"McDonald, known for his critically acclaimed performance as Jerry Lee Lewis in the musical “Million Dollar Quartet,” released his debut album, “Memphis,” in 2021.

The production “Great Balls of Fire” pays homage to several celebrated musicians, including Elvis Presley, Willie Nelson, and Chuck Berry."

My mother knew Anne Francis when they were young. She went to school with Chuck Connors (The Rifleman), and my father played baseball as a kid with Brian Keith. Dom Murray (Bus Stop, Hoodlum Priest) also lived in our town, East Rockaway, for a while.

Thanks. I subscribed. DaVinci is complicated! It's my understanding that it can sync two audio clips at a time, and then you can select another clip to be synched with that. I've had success synching sound using PowerDirector and the sound waves. Having the software do it would be better.

I always get what I pay for. High price and high quality do not go together. I've bought desk chairs from $60 - $120, and they've lasted a long time.

I got some C and D rechargeables from Amazon. My cuckoo clock needs C batteries. I've seen C batteries that had a AA inside, so you're just getting a fat AA.

I ordered some high-powered lasers from a questionable source, so I'll see how that works out.

The impact wrench came in a nice case, and it included half a dozen sockets. I can also do something with the battery and charger.

Good link, but not quite the same thing. The same guys singing songs.

I could start multiple camcorders simultaneously, but each camera starts differently, so they would never start recording at the same time. I'll try DaVinci.

I use hot dog tongs.

I received my Samsung Galaxy Fit 3 smart watch today. Naturally, it requires an app to get it working. I was surprised that both of my phones were able to install the app, but I was disappointed that neither phone can find the watch. I guess this will be another Amazon return. This watch cost only $62, but I'm not going to take a chance on their $200 or $300 watch.

Another oddity. Of course, it comes with a neat little magnetic charging cable that snaps onto the watch. The other end has a USB C plug. I have several dozen USB chargers, but no one of them has a USB C port. Fortunately, I can charge the watch using my Moto e6, which uses a USB port for charging.

Reading online, I'm not the only one having trouble connecting to the watch. Even if it does connect, it loses contact occasionally, so there goes the "smart" feature. Back it goes!

That's a nice feature, and DaVinci can do that. I'll take a look today or tomorrow.

I've bought desks and chairs from businesses - good stuff at good prices. I also got a nice four-drawer filing cabinet. Remember them? That's how people stored documents before they had computers.
