Hansel & Grethel/GPS Blues

As the darkness loomed and the fog began to roll into the forest primeval, Hansel and Grethel began to wish they hadn’t relied on the bread crumbs to find their way home.

Not Updated

When Louise picked up her rental car at the airport, the counter guy pressed her to take the GPS option–no way she could get lost or be late with the latest technology.  Within a short time though, when she came to the bridge, she was pretty sure that the GPS or the satellite data base hadn’t had an update in recent times . . .

The French Connection

Tina was majoring in pre-med but taking a minor in French, so it only seemed natural that she would select French as the language  for her GPS in her new Toyota.  She had intended to drive from her home in Galveston to San Antonio for a weekend of fun at the Riverwalk, but was beginning to suspect the French option may have had consequences that went beyond the language choice. . . . .

GPS Issues

Lizzie (not pictured) couldn’t decide if Jeff, her fiance (pictured, under water), had gotten cold feet about getting married and was heading back out to sea to avoid the humiliation of calling off the wedding or if he had forgotten to download the updates for his GPS  . . . .  David, Sf.G.
