A real use for one of my gadgets!

 So I buy a lot of gadgets because I think they're cool.   This year I bought a USB Snake Inspection Camera, I had originally intended to find a leak under one of our bathrooms but that didn't go well at all and was pretty much a bust.  Ended up having to cut a big hole in a wall and find it the old fashion way. 

But this past weekend I found another opportunity and the camera came up big.  The new Airpod 3's from apple aren't great compared to the previous generation in my opinion.  The Sound is way way better.  I love what I'm hearing compared to the previous ones.   Because they shortened the little stick coming out and made the part that goes in your ear bigger, they're more awkward to handle.  Especially if you're used to the previous ones which are more svelte.  Anyway the smaller "stick" means its easier to miss the hole on the charging case.  Which means you can fumble them.  And if you're sitting in the back seat of a car with bench seats, it can go down the hole for the seatbelts.  

Hard to find things that go down the seatbelt hole.  Unless... Unless you like to accumulate gadgets and have a snake camera!

 

I thought I found it right away, but turns out that's just a piece of bright foam from the seat.   But further down I found the unmistakable "L" of the left airpod.

And all the crumbs and stuff that have fallen under there.  Yuck.  Anyway, USB snake camera saves the day.  It had gotten kinda "up and under" the seat brackets so you could not see it without the camera.  Additionally the silver sheet metal behind it made it even harder to see.

The moral I take away from this story:  Buy more fun gadgets.  Just in case.
