Nice job!
I object to our local news people (so called) who seem to spent every newscast talking about Facebook and Twitter and what’s “trending” instead of giving me the news.
And stay off my lawn!
Jeff, I thought Patrick was much more relaxed in this interview. It helped that the morning hosts weren’t bubble heads.
Exactly. Unlike the other woman this pair seemed to have a clue what they (and he) were talking about.
Jeff, Patrick wants to be interviewed in Prime Time instead of the ungodly hours these TV morning show hosts have to keep.
The hosts aren’t bubbleheads, but they’re far, far too perky. Patrick is much better than they are.
Bill, Patrick really knows his stuff. And it shows.
Terrific!!
Patti, Patrick’s interview is not as terrific as Meghan’s adventures. Or her scintillating review in today’s NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW!
The only way I’d have one of these is if they were 10 years out of date.
Bob, credit cards are going to be phased out over the next couple of years. We’ll all be forced to use smart phones to charge stuff.
We both have a 4 S and are perfectly happy with them. Barbara updated to IOS 7 a few weeks ago and after working with it on her phone I don’t care much for the “improvements” including the ridiculous new icons, which look like they were made for 6th graders. Of course Windows made it’s colorful new look similarly adolescent. I also don’t like some of the changes in operability with IOS 7, so, for the very little amount I use my iPhone I’m staying with what I have.
I check my email on laptop or desktop Macs, do searches on those larger screens too. The speakers on the phone are silly bad compared to my real speakers for music, and I don’t text, Tweet or F-Book, so upgrades are of little use. Patrick did a good job in the interview.
Rick, I think APPLE is just tweaking their iPhones. There are no major differences or improvements as you pointed out.
Every time we go into Starbucks it seems more and more people use the app on their smart phone to pay, though there are always a minority who use cash. Some others use debit or credit cards. Jackie got a gold Starbucks card when she retired so we use that. Also, by registering it you get free drinks fairly often.
George, per your comment to Bob, I seriously doubt credit cards are going to be phased out in favor of smart phones. There are still millions of people in this country alone – not to mention the many, many millions world wide – who do not have nor use cell phones, let alone smart phones capable of bank transactions. The security implications, hackers, stolen instruments, password problems and the cost for the banks and customers will keep this from happening longer than you are guessing.
Oh yes, and we both use Starbucks cards and re-load them as needed.
No football talk today? And the Saints went to 5-0.
Full disclosure: I have a two-year-old i-phone and have yet to upgrade the o/s even though I keep getting “reminded” to do so everytime I turn it on.
Deb, congratulations on the Saints remaining undefeated. Two former undefeated teams–the Seahawks and the Patriots–were defeated today.
…and the Giants are a pathetic 0-5. Unbelievable.
I was surprised at the Patriots, I must admit. And I’m rooting for Peyton to pull it out against the hated Cowboys.
Jeff, Peyton is enjoying a magical year! The Broncos may go undefeated.
and the Seahawks lost one I don’t think they should have. Russell Wilson is in a slump.
Rick, Luck had a lot to do with that win over the Seahawks. He’s the next great quarterback.
By the way, anyone watching BLACKLIST?
Rick, I’m not watching BLACKLIST because I haven’t heard anything buzz about it.
Well, Barbara isn’t exactly “buzz”, but she has watched the first two and is liking it enough to stay up late tonight to see # 3.
