My Favorite Urban Legend

One urban legend that I really like is "The Killer in the Backseat". This legend includes a woman who stops for gas on a rainy and thunderstorm night and the owner comes to pump her gas, while he is pumping her gas he notices a man hiding in the backseat, and when he finishes pumping her gas, she gives him a credit card and to pay for the gas, and the owner goes inside and then quickly comes back out and tells her that the card is declined and he has the credit card company on the phone and she goes in to talk to them, and she starts to get scared and fidgety of the owner because she believes he is trying to kill her and she runs out and gets back into the and locks the door and drives off, and the owner is a stutterer and before he evens gets out what he wants to say she drives off, and he finally gets out what he wants to say and yells, "There's a killer in the backseat!!!". With some extra research, in some versions of the legend the person in the backseat is a murderer, rapist, and an escaped mental patient. Instead of the store owner warning her, there is another car behind her, flashing their high beams warning her, and by the time she makes it home, she realizes that the driver was warning her of the mysteries man in the backseat, scaring him.

Etekcity Digital Voice Recorder & MP3 Player with Built-in Magnetic Lapel Clip and 3.5 mm Audio Jack (8 GB, Black)

I received this recorder in exchange for my unbiased and hones review. BUILD: The first thing I said when I received this recorder was that ….this thing is super duper small, obviously in the pictures it looked a whole lot bigger, but no biggie. What I love about this thing is that it is very compact and has a clip that I could clip to my shirt or pants pocket and I love this. It has a play/pause button, on/off switch, save/record switch, mode selection used for switching between music and recording and a headphone jack to listen to the recording or listen to music and also this is an mp3 player as well which is a double plus. It has 8gb of storage. This also comes with a usb charging/sync cable as well. Sound: I tested out the recording part,  and the audio was decent except for the background noise….well I had a fan and air conditioner running in the background but this was nothing a little audacity could not help. I just took out the background noise and it sounded fine.

Vivitar Wireless Bluetooth Speaker with Speakerphone (Red)

I was out at Walmart just browsing and , I happened to come upon this Vivitar wireless Bluetooth speaker and all for the very cheap price of 8 bucks. I was thinking to myself it is probably just cheap no sounding piece of crap speaker that no one is buying and put it on clearance to get rid of it. The kind clearances I like. So, being a technology enthusiast and because it was just 8 bucks I decided to try it out. I didn’t have much to lose. Pros: Price: The price of this speaker was very cheap, and I like cheap sometimes. Build: I love the color of the speaker, I do love that they have a variety  colors , but I wanted something other than the general colors black or white.  It is very light weight, almost close to feather in your hand. It does have these 4 rubber pads at the bottom to prevent it from moving. Sound: The sound is decent for some basic music listening not to good and not to bad either. Bluetooth: I love that it is really easy to connect it to Blue
