Random thought: The name Pixel Buds made me chuckle. Pixels are for eyes you silly rabbit. Forgive me, I am easily amused.

However, after weeks of in house observation, months of group therapy and years of weekly shrink sessions, I have come to the conclusion that after all these years, I still have brain damage. A condition I'll most likely die with.

Thinking about buying my first Apple Watch. But I have pre-paid with TMobile, and the LTE watch only works with contract plans. The areas where I hike and bike typically only get one bar over TMobile, so not sure how much I need the watch. But I'd like to learn more about it as an investor. Also going to get those Beats X headphones. I currently have no working headphones, since I lost my white Apple wired ones. Anyway, we're all veterans of fake news, being Apple investors.

I got another chance to use the watch today at Best Buy. The store was certainly not quiet, but Siri had no problem picking up my voice and was surprisingly accurate. The compelling reason for the iPhone and thus for the watch for me is access to the information on the web. I think we are halfway there with version 3. With just a watch and an Airpod, you can get answers to simple questions like the current temperature or who won last weeks game. If you ask for a list of the top ten books on stock investing, you get an answer like "I can help you with that on your phone". SO, I guess the utility of the watch in terms of information access really depends on the kind of questions you are likely to ask. It was still very impressive and I am moving closer to a purchase.
