Oh Well, Does Reality Ever Quite Match Fantasies?

       Wouldn't you know, when they finally come through with a Dick Tracy watch, the one thing it can't do all by itself is work as a phone!

       I was not a big fan of the Tracy comic strip growing up, but I think everybody was aware of the  fantastic watch.  Worn on the wrist, Dick could lift it toward his face and talk to anyone anywhere.

       Son David and I were reading and looking into videos about the Apple Watch; we are pretty certain that to make that wrist watch into a telephone you always have to have the iPhone in your pocket or nearby, and then you may want to switch to the iPhone to improve the sound!
