Yet MORE Bluetooth Nonsense


Yes, dear readers, Bluetooth can always find new ways to confound.  My trusty iPhone has no fewer than 5 Bluetooth-activatable connections.

At this point, you may be thinking "What idiot has 5 Bluetooth devices?" Of course, the answer is me.  And each makes sense.  To sum up, there's 1) the car. You have to have that one. Then 2) the Bluetooth dingus you bought for your 20-year old stereo that turns it into a modern miracle music machine. 3) the Air Boss "dongle" for my Bose portable, so the phone doesn't even have to be plugged in to make loud music outdoors. 4) Who hasn't converted an old car stereo into a music machine in their cellar workshop, I ask you? And 5): My Sphero toy. (It changes colors! It rolls around the floor! It scares the crap out of the cats! Who could ask for more?).

So there you have it. 5. At unpredictable moments, one will turn itself on when you first activate your phone in the morning. This is bad. 1) early in the morning, music blasting from who-knows-where for who-knows-why really doesn't contribute to your Sainted wife still trying to get her 8 hours in after staying up to watch Chelsea Lately, and 2) you have 4 really good stereos and you have to find which one is the offender - fast. 

I'm good, but "fast" doesn't describe me early in the morning.
