"Oh,
yes, that's right. So, you go to the first light, then take a short
jog next to where the filling station used to be..."

In
keeping with that, Apple just released their own map app named, in an
astounding leap of creativity.... Maps, which could stand for More
Aggravating Personal Software.
Containing
several new features, including 3-D (wonder if you have to wear the
glasses?), and more bugs than an ant colony, Tim Cook, Apple's CEO,
apologized online, and essentially told folks to use other mapping
programs, "... like Bing, MapQuest, and Waze" while they
figure out who to blame.
I
don't know. Sounds pretty good to me. On their next release,
they'll have a more personable voice system, sounding something like
this... "No, sweetie, you take a left down where the barber shop
used to be."
