Easily amused

Filed under: Geek @ 11:39 pm

I like that my Garmin GPS actually speaks the street names. The voice does pretty well with most streets, but sometimes her voice goes up high and she has trouble getting back to a normal level. This makes me smile.

First, let’s listen to her getting excited about Pumpkin Drive. I don’t blame her. Street names in Cupertino are kind of awesome. You take Bubb Road to Pumpkin Drive, and then maybe hang out on Rainbow Drive later. Just make sure you don’t get stuck on an Infinite Loop.

I also find it funny when she says “Mountain View Alviso Road.”
