Mom: Your new toothbrush sings a song to help you brush your teeth! Push this button - Alice: Oh, boy! Toothbrush: brush your teeth, go up and down, up and down up and down. Brush your teeth, go up and down, brushing teeth is lots of fun! Brush your teeth, go back and forth, back and forth back and forth, Brush your teeth, go back and forth, brushing teeth is lots of fun! ... Alice: I'm telling you, first it's toothbrushes, next spoons will be telling you how to eat and crayons will tell you what to draw! Dill: YAGH! Beni: I knew it - music is dangerous!

With kids like you, Alice, it’s all a necessary evil.

But seriously, music is dangerous - that must be why they’re cutting it from all the school budgets.

Fritzoid, I have a Garmin that my son gave me last year. I saved some locations as “favorites” and went to one today, but the device kept wanting to tell me to return to my home (I could see from the directions). Computer devices are great when they work- but that one also does not know about freeway closures on weekends ;-(
