Hi Dave,

I was one of these old farts with a golf cart when I arrived here in Green Valley in 2005. So I eliminated governor and increased the compression ratio of the one lunger motor, changed the rear axle gearing and made a rocket (for a golf cart) out of it. I got pulled over by the Pima County Sheriffs for doing 43 mph in the golf cart/bicycle lane. Way too fast for a flippin' golf cart, eh? Sheriff was simply amazed by the speed. I told him I was a former racecar driver an wanted to hotrod my golf cart. His advice was "cool it!" to which I said "yes Officer". Sold it shortly afterwards. Contemplated installing a twin cylinder Brigs and Stratren motor, but gave up the idea. No house at the time and limited tools in the RV park...

Best,

Phil, You are Tim Taylor’s identical twin, right? I loved the Home Improvement TV show!

We use to just dial 0 and ask the operator. Needless to say she wasn't happy. lol
Now I don't even wear a watch anymore, just check the smartphone.

I haven't seen the appeal of a matching smartwatch yet, though my buddy with the Apple Watch swears by his.

I love my Apple Watch. It's so much more than a way to see the time.

Oh, for sure.

He answers texts, checks email, and uses it to unlock his Mac among other things.

I've been on Android since the iPhone 4S came out and felt no real incentive to get an iPhone again, especially since when I am on the road with my team (who all have iPhones) my phone is the one we use for navigation (Apple maps once landed us in a Lowes parking lot instead of the government building we were looking for).

Now that I can use Waze on the iPhone and with Carplay, I am considering the new SE when it's time for a new phone.

So far my GS8 keeps plugging along.
