Car Fire on 495
This morning I was driving to work when I saw the damndest thing. A car fire on 495. There was a jeep that was completely engulfed in flames in the middle of the highway. I drove right by it and it was pretty scary.
I was almost late to work and it kind of set the day off in a wrong way.
But, I hope that everyone in the car got out okay. I tried to call 911, but it was busy. I broke a lot of rules on the way to work because I was trying to make it in time, I just made it and then spent an hour looking for parking.

A big screen carries with it different UI expectations, and how that manifests itself in Apple TV’s Settings app, is that there’s always room for an additional hint about the thing you’ve just selected. So yes, I have been exploring Apple TV’s Settings aft...
