As long as you control the power cord, you have total control over the gadget.

Failing that, a bigger hammer always rules....

Gadgets understand intimidation...😀😀😀

Ha!! Many times if a hammer had been within reach I would have put those @%$#*^& devices out of their misery.

What happened to the simple life?

I find the hammer is a crude, effective , expensive way to solve problems with those new tech things. Really drives my wife crazy. Peace except with high tech, jim

Thumbs up Count me in!

This will be my first Airstream gathering - I bought my FC 20 just a year ago. I hope to bring my father, who also loves Airstreams and used to own a 2003 Classic 25.

Mr. Sandlapper,

What is this flip phone? I went from my signal flags or signal light (Morse Code) to a bag phone to an I Phone in one generation. Wow that's moving ahead with communications. But I understand the hammer, you can send code really well if the others fail.

Something to reflect on when other devices fail.

Good point John..... hammer sends a great signal. The bigger the hammer, the better the signal.

BTW.....case in point: stopped in Wendys yesterday for lunch. They have installed a new self serve drink dispenser monster . Touch screen with a gazillion choices. All I wanted was water. If I had a hammer then, I might be in jail now.

These days, ya gotta have the mind of a 10 year old to operate anything electronic.

Thanks for the correction Michael, I've never been a good speller, and I need all the help I can get. Seems lately it is worse than ever.
