GPS sucks

So I was trying to go see my friend take his black belt test today and dared to assume my GPS would get me there without getting lost.  Somehow it is working less and less well, and any intersection that is not a 90 degree angle crossover makes it think I have crossed over into an alternate universe and have to take the scenic tour through hell to return to my home dimension.  Somehow I ended up in Dogpatch, for god’s sake.

Anyway, enough ranting.  If we had a little magic in our technology (steampunk) then I probably would have not gotten lost, as in this great controller from the videe game t shirt section.

I have totally blown off working this weekend and not gotten much work done.  I know this is what weekends are supposed to be for, but I feel the need to put in more hours.  I think if I get my laundry done I will put in a few hours tonight.  I have some Godzilla and Alien t shirts that need some love tonight.

Anyway, getting everything ready for WonderCon.  It should be great.  If you are going to be there be sure to stop by and say hi to Winter and me.

    I have some iPhone pics that put me in rural China (I was in South San Jose), and I fondly remember looking at the PLGR in disgust in the mountains of Korea when it told me I was somewhere within 3 km of the given coordinates.

    Wow. I guess I should stop complaining. At least I was in the right country.
