The one about the devil & also Mapquest v. Google maps.
I’m pretty sure the guy who sat at my bar Saturday night was the devil. Or at least sent by him. Never mind the two or more times I saw the number 666 around the time of his presence, I still think he was sowing something evil. He knew his Bible–at least parts of it. He picked and chose what he dwelled upon, and just happened to have hit on the major aspect of the Bible I can’t seem to wrap my head around.
(Okay, creepily I just took a break from writing this post to seek forum assistance regarding our DVR box. What was the username I was reading? “DevilProbably.” No joke.)
Anyway, he was a rapid-fire liar, one right after the other. All the signs point to something sinister. Negative effects are still revealing themselves. That’s all I’m going to say about that.
Moving on.
Mapquest vs. Google Maps
I’ve taken a lot of flack lately about using Mapquest, and granted, it did tell me to turn right on Kilbourn instead of left, but otherwise, here are the things I like about Mapquest:
While using driving directions, you can add extra stops along the way and/or rearrange the stops to plan out a step-by-step driving guide. You can search for business around each stop in case you’re looking for a Braum’s or a Hardee’s or a Days Inn or a Jesse James Museum.
Also, MQ won’t tell me to swim across the ocean. Smartass.
Google, on the other hand, has directions available in other countries. It also has a realistic satellite map and sometimes street photos, which is cool, albeit almost a little too stalker, even for me. Other than that, what’s Google got going for it, except that it’s easily the biggest monopoly since Microsoft?
(Yeah, I didn’t say “since Apple” because I like my Mac.)
So, what’s the deal?
Peace, love, and …mapquest?
