+LthrWrk Posted November 14, 2004 Share Posted November 14, 2004 Though I really truly enjoy geocaching.. Sundays during season it is NASCAR Cup Race for the Championship. During a caution, channel surfing.. here is what is found. Tight screen shot of a dash mounted GPS and display.. kewl. Exterior shot of a white large SUV. kewl.. Voice over.. to the effect.. When I got this SUV and the GPS was in it.. why would I need it to get from 'here' to 'there'. The manufacturer's manual assured me that the overhead satellites will get me 'there'. Trust in the information.. certainly and it did work. The program was a silk clad matching pants and shirt preacher.. GOD is overhead looking out for you trust in the information.. I laughed my butt off. So now we have comparisons of GPS to God. When your in the dark woods.. late in the day.. getting even darker... keep looking at your GPSr.. arrow bouncing all different directions.... you hear an authoritative voice.. "Hey Silly.. just off to your right.. under that piece of bark.. " Quote Link to comment

beebot Posted November 14, 2004 Share Posted November 14, 2004 Sounds like it would be a funny geocaching commercial to me! Quote Link to comment
Keystone Posted November 14, 2004 Share Posted November 14, 2004 I've read it three times, and still don't have a clue what your post was about. It is the beginning of the ad campaign to achieve world domination through subversive religion masquerading as science. Submit to the frog. Quote Link to comment
+LthrWrk Posted November 14, 2004 Author Share Posted November 14, 2004 LAUGHS.. I guess you would have had to been there. It was just that channel surfing during the commercial/caution of the NASCAR race. I seem to be noticing GPS ads more often on TV. Especially CNN, have seen two different Garmin promotions. But while surfing .. got the tight screen shot of dash mounted GPS and screen shot. The preacher was tryn to make a point. I think. That follow the instructions (maybe Bible) and you will get to the 'right' place. Being an agnostic I just found the thought of a preacher comparing God and GPS technology was hilarious. But if I hear a deep booming authoritative voice announcing where I should look while in the deep dark woods.. Quote Link to comment
+BigWhiteTruck Posted November 15, 2004 Share Posted November 15, 2004 True, I doubt the Bible will help if you find yourself lost in the woods. But I also doubt your GPSr will help if you find yourself lost in life. Quote Link to comment
+TotemLake Posted November 15, 2004 Share Posted November 15, 2004 True, I doubt the Bible will help if you find yourself lost in the woods. Well... I could use the pages as a fire starter. Quote Link to comment
+LthrWrk Posted November 15, 2004 Author Share Posted November 15, 2004 Laughs... not the first time I heard that sort of stuff.. Ya still gotta wonder when a televangical preacher makes the comparison though. hmmm... lets see.. shall we lobby for them USAF cronies to upgrade. Start figuring out how to watch us.. and send us a voice message..."Warmer.... no colder.. warmer... " as you get nearer the target.. Quote Link to comment
