Brewster Rockit by Tim Rickard for May 17, 2022

It is sad how may people can not do simple things without their smart phone. I have tried to teach my nephew how to get around his new town by learning the roads, but he insists that his phone can guide him wherever he wants to go. That is fine until it doesn’t work.

The only phone numbers that I remember are from the time before I got a smartphone.

Count on Oldbot for an old joke.

If you remembered your own number, you could get Brewster to call you and find it that way.

We used to (when I was a kid) only have to dial (the last) 5 digits for local calls.

So Oldbot is just an older person.

Nothing like carefully, consciously crafting a single point of failure.

Can’t he use his watch to locate his phone? :)

Even worse with a gps….

Wow! I have that problem, can’t find my iPad so I can’t use that app to find my iPhone. Is not Modern Technology just fantastic?

“Okay, maybe ONE thing…”

Aye, there’s the rub.

Couldn’t you install a phone in the robot?

oops!
