Alexa will make your car smarter -- and vice versa

Yeah and Alexa will also hand your ass over to the thought police who are coming with the next Democrat president.

What I like - a navigation system that tells me to turn right in five seconds to make my exit on an unfamiliar alternate route.
What I don’t like - a navigation system that says turn here, and then I realize I’m sitting in the parking lot of a place we often eat out at but I am trying to save money.

My pal bought a new Honda that reads text messages text-to-voice. So of course we were cracking up over sending him loads of obscene messages. In Pig Latin.

Knowledge (something or someone telling you the answer) does not make you smarter

Thinking makes you smarter

Einstein was not Einstein because he read the theory of relativity

Knowledge is food ...being able to vomited back out On Demand is not “being smarter”..

Thinking is exercise..that the way you build the muscle that is the mind ...that’s “smarter”

Do you really trust Jeff Bezos -- the man who hired 20 special reporters at his Washington Post just to dig up dirt on Trump -- and his "Alexa" devices to listen to every word you say in your car?

No, thanks. I want my car with 1976 smarts. Easy to work on and not so many buttons to confuse. Definitely no Big Brother. And give me back comfortable seats, smooth ride and a steering wheel that can be turned with my little finger.
