People have accused me in the past of being geeky. It’s just happened again, in fact!
I am currently cruising down highway 401 in the passenger seat of my business partner Howard’s VW Beetle. We’re travelling 125 KPH on a heading of 43.9N 78.6W about 50K from Pickering.
How do I know this, and how can I tell you? I’ve got my GPS plugged into my laptop, tracking position on my mapping software. And, I’m using my Blackberry as a modem to connect to the Internet.
Now I ask you, does that warrant the label geeky?
