This writer once lived in the woods in England for over three years. Though I still listen to the radio from time to time, I tended to ignore the huge changes going on in real life. I initially heard the alphabet soup term "GPS" while I was still living in America, but always in the field of an army or big law enforcement or rescue agency. If I heard about a automotive GPS in a radio advertisements, I never knew what they were talking about, and didn't care to discover.

Welcome (Back) To America

Moving back to America, I was in for a dreadful culture shock. I avoided watching television so long as I could, but my mum ( who took her wayward child in ) loved it, so the TV was on all the time. I'd practically pound my head against the floor simply because I couldn't understand the commercials. My Mom had to give me an explanation what "bling" meant. That was a tad bit humbling.

At the time, I took computer lessons and tried to get my head together. I certainly needed a automotive GPS to figure out what I was doing. As a lark, I joined several online survey groups. I started getting free samples, and learned what a car GPS was. I did not have much of a choice I was getting 2 or three automotive GPS surveys a week.

Back In The Saddle Again

I realized that instead of being bothered by geeky language, automobile GPS dashboard mounted devices were helpful and simply comprehensible gizmos that might help improve the standard of life. Imagine if the children of Israel had automobile GPS units strapped to their mules and camels.

They wouldn't have wandered around in the desert for forty years. They would've found the best route to The promised Land before dinner.

People of my generation and younger get so easily lost because it is just too dangerous to go anywhere. Whenever we plan a road trip, we need to allow at least three hours to get lost and then find our way again. Think of the waste of gas.

But with a car GPS unit, you don't have to waste gas or time to get to your destination. I wonder how much gas is saved just by using automotive GPS units.

If I ever return to the woods, I suspect I'll take an automobile GPS device with me. Perhaps then I could make better choices about my life.
