Stacy Sanchez,

This is the comment that I couldn't get to post on your GoPro post:

I like it. It's an older "bullet" style, but it has a nice large slider for recording, which comes in handy; records GPS data of what I'm doing that can then be overlaid on the video and while not waterproof, it water resistant.

This is the one I have: https://buy.garmin.com/en-US/US/p/119594

And in this video you can see the overlay in the lower left hand corner. I bought it for motorcycle riding and it works great.

This video also demonstrates the sensors: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B6P74o0ppqc

With their latest cameras, Garmin has followed GoPro's lead and gone square, or cube, shaped. I have GoPro adaptors so I can use my GoPro accessories and since I have a Garmin smart intelligent watch I can perform basic functions from my wrist such as start/stop (recording).

For what it's worth, I called Garmin yesterday because the band on my fitness watch (Vivosmart HR) broke and I needed a replacement. The customer service rep ordered me a new one and is having it shipped at no cost to me. Our conversation went as thus:

Him: Thanks for calling Garmin, how can I help?
Me: My Vivismart ban broke.
Him: Do you have a serial number?
Me: Yep, xxx-xxx-xxx.
Him: Okay, I'll have a new out to you in a few days. Thanks for calling Garmin.

I have to tell you, if I ever need anything Garmin sells, I'm buying it from them. Great customer service.

Jason ON that's unusual in this day and age. I just dealt with some crap and good customer service created lifelong customers, regardless of problems. Stuff happens. It's how you deal with it that counts.

Exactly. I'll never wonder about buying Garmin again. Unless it changes in the future, but for now I'm their customer.

So, I asked Andrew Tamm, who filled my Stream with a hundred (sarcasm there) animated gifs and cat pictures to remove me from whatever Circle he has me in where he posts the animated gifs and cat pictures. It was either that or unfollow him and I didn't see any reason to unfollow him. Me asking https://plus.google.com/112885755521259735422/posts/78dwnvvgh4p <==edited to add the correct link Then he plusses me onto Public posts of animated cat gifs : https://plus.google.com/u/0/112885755521259735422/posts/EuuR1tnU3vJ https://plus.google.com/u/0/112885755521259735422/posts/8r6Grcm2Jpj https://plus.google.com/u/0/112885755521259735422/posts/74PgSu6iL2s Then one of his friends (or Circlers) starts plussing me into posts of animated cat gifs : https://plus.google.com/u/0/107120198886093172821/posts/gRW9JhWLs5T Don't get me wrong, I'm all about sarcasm and messing with people, but this seems sort of childish to me. Am I the only one who thinks so? So far I have only blocked

I'm shutting down Google+ for the night and quite possibly for the weekend. Why? This stupid #gifwars thing people are so proud of. This Adam Black guy said he doesn't like gifs and now everyone is mass trolling him. Having been mass trolled like this I can relate to him easily enough. Have an opinion and the collective might of Google+'s lower class denizens jump on a bandwagon. I just saw a post where someone wanted to jump on board and had to get clarification she was tagging the proper Adam Black. She wasn't even connected to him ! Nor was she a part of the original discussion. She just wanted to follow the herd. When I called her out of it she claimed, "one gif doesn't make a troll." Perhaps not, but she's contributing to a larger troll effort. One straw doesn't break the camel's back, but thousands will. So, tonight, Google+ disgusts me. It probably will tomorrow as well. And possibly Sunday. I gave up Google+ for two months this spring
