usfollowme: October 2012

Disclaimer. I have no knowledge of any terror attack or any part of the event that led to the Big Tex burning but I wanted to write was this piece. This is a work of fiction and not true to events that took place on 10/19/2012. I have no knowledge of the incident. I was not anywhere near the park and take no responsibility for the disaster. This is satire, I do not mean to offend any parties and do not wish to make light of this tragic event.

Help is on the way. In light of the recent fire of the Big Tex, it is clear that more security is needed at the state fair. The Dallas police force has cancelled all vacations and given called for more Texas State troopers and the National Guard.

The Texas Governor has promised to provide any and all resources he could. While the president has promised to send in FEMA to provide shelter and comfort to all the affected families. There will also be a Therapist hotline for any people affected by this tragedy. As the TSA is the industry leader in security there are plans to have the TSA manning security lines in 2013.

Update:

A report stated that Hilary more security forces were requested of the state department in 2011 but went unheeded. The State department came said she had reviewed all requests and did not feel that this iconic figure was under any threat. In light of the recent events the secretary of state offered her resignation but the president has stated that this happened under my watch and he takes full responsibility.

To be clear this story is 100% fiction and none of this report is true.

Our second dog, Isabelle, is a full-blood Corgi, with a breeding record and everything. One thing that surprised me when we got her was that she came (as they say) “microchipped”; that is, she has an RFID tracking microchip installed subcutaneously, so that if she ever gets lost her RFID with our contact info can be read by a vet so we can be reunited.

But what about your kid? I mean, you definitely have a greater desire to make sure your kid is safe than you do your dog. But installing a microchip is kind of severe, eh? And in these days of everyone carting around their own mobile GPS device, it can be gotten around:

With the number of smartphones and tablets soon to exceed the planet’s population, mobile devices are an important part of daily life, and new applications that extend device utility are finding receptive buyers. Securus, Inc. offers products like eZoom, a multi-use tracker that enables users to view the location of children, teen drivers, vehicles and more online or via smartphone 24/7. The eCare+Voice mobile medical alert system keeps seniors and people with special needs connected and safe no matter where they are. Led by Chris Newton, President and CEO, Securus, Inc. isexpanding its market reach via partnerships with top retailers such as RadioShack, Fry’s and Pep Boys.

The Securus eZoom, a light, durable multi-use GPS tracker, can help users locate children, keep tabs on teen drivers and recover stolen items. The small device can be placed in a laptop bag or child’s backpack or installed in vehicles, providing 24/7 tracking capabilities online or viasmartphone to find the unit’s exact location. eZoom allows parents to create SafeSpots (such as schools) for children and to receive notifications when the unit leaves the designated area. eZoomallows parents to receive instant notifications when teen drivers arrive at their destination as well as alerts when teens exceed a preset speed limit. The device also allows children and teens to check in with an instant alert button. eZoom enables users to protect parked vehicles by remotely arming a car with a motion detector and anti-theft alert; users can track the exact location of stolen vehicles for quick recovery, a feature that may entitle users to valuable vehicle insurance discounts. The unique technology behind eZoom is Assisted-GPS, which enhances the performance of basic GPS location time and accuracy and provides fast positioning even when GPS signal conditions are weak.

eCare+Voice, the only phone/GPS locator with the option for wireless inductive charging, puts instant assistance at the fingertips of seniors and others with medical conditions or special needs. With eCare+Voice, users can reach the Securus Emergency Care Center with an SOS button, enabling two-way communication via the unit’s microphone and speaker. The unit provides location tracking and communication capabilities anywhere in the US without requiring a landline or base station connection. Users can talk directly to Emergency Care Center professionals and request assistance for any situation. The Emergency Care Center will notify loved ones of an urgent situation. Caregivers can keep tabs on their loved ones’ location anytime with the Securus tracking website or smartphone app and also receive low battery alerts and notifications when a unit is powered off. This ensures peace of mind while enabling loved ones to retain their independence, wherever they are.

Sound good? The price for both eZoom and eCare devices: 99.99 + service plan (which range in price depending on how you choose to pay; you can find more information on the SecureUS web site. And if you get yourself one, be sure to let us know what you think below!
