    Very futuristic. I'm just not much for remote starters.

    Personally, when I start my Mirage, or any other car, or work truck, I like to always turn the key and the other hand is on the wheel. Cool post however! Cheers from Canada

    I sort of feel the same way. I just don't see a need or reason to ever start my car without being in it.

    I do like my TV remote, however!

    I agree, TV remote is essential. I had an old black and white TV in the old bonair trailer back in the 80s, with the rotary channel dial. Took forever, but we had 2 channels on a good day. I saw the Olympics on it.

    I remember when getting a Zenith color TV was a big deal! I even remember one of the first things we watched on that TV - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aloha_..._Via_Satellite

    Aloha from Hawaii, good one. That would have been a big deal to see on TV via satellite. Elvis was a strange guy. Long story short, I heard some stories from someone in the know, my older musician friend. What a talent though, when you got him in the moment, nobody else like Elvis.

    I was going for hijack of the week!

    I apologize to mitsumi. Starting your car with your watch is cool! I doubt that I can pull that off with my $30 Timex, however.
