Blog Break till Tuesday

I have a lot going on with my other jobs right now (next week’s column – Elderly Drivers).  There’s About pages to write, YouTube channels to organize, and to complete construction of Project Mega Spreadsheet.

Then last Thursday, a fight with a fever broke out, Tuesday morning it won, that was the last time I’ve tasted or smelled anything. I rarely get sick, but when I do, it’s legendary how bad it gets. Here’s to it not being like this time.

I pick up my car tomorrow!  I decided to re-invest in my Jetta, instead of buying another new (used) car. Pumped.

Mmm, what else… nope that’s all I got. It’s 12am, putting Vicks on my neck now, wrap a sock around it I’m done.

Twitter, Facebook & Instagram still, and  TTY here Tuesday, have a great weekend XO

Back in Business with a Booster Pack

Enough. 10,000 times by now at least.

It’s a MotoMaster 700, $99 at CDN Tire.

My car was dormant for 6 days, and it boosted it first shot.

Booster packs got pretty sophisticated since I last paid attention.

Look, USB.

The Jetta is fully-functional again.

I should’ve bought backup a long time ago.

 

 

Spot the Problem with Banner Ads

My 2014 Chrysler 300 review is positive, I called it a segment leader even.

But the negative banner ad displayed at the top, claims the opposite.

Oh boy.

That’s why there’s no banner ads around here; it’s tough to totally control, and isn’t worth the $60/month I’d make.

(not picking on Autonet, they get way more traffic than KeriBlog, so different thought process.)

 

 

Armoured Cars are Coming into Vogue

There’s a very expensive luxury sedan segment you don’t see advertised, the Security segment.

BMW Security, Mercedes S-Guard, Audi A8 Security,

Take their largest sedan, add plating, ballistic and new windows, cameras with night vision, instantly seal the cabin for gas attacks, and keep it looking like the regular model – security through obscurity.

Read in on Autonet.ca

Favourite line:

Masking the armour beneath factory finishings, so the car looks identical to the non-armoured model.

The Attack:

I’d go for the vehicle’s traffic… follow behind, laptop and antennae on the passenger seat, see what you can capture…maybe steal some passwords, or take some data and hold it for ransom, copy photos for blackmail, you get it.
