My life does not include a great number of gadgets.
Of course, like nearly everyone, I use technology in my day to day life.
However, I’m not that person who waits for the next latest and greatest piece of gadgetry. I have acquaintances who devote an inordinate amount of time to collecting every electronic gizmo that they can get their hands on. I tend to be the guy who comes home and puts his feet up while the HVAC comfort embraces me. So, I don’t really pay that much attention to the latest tech innovation to hit the scene. Thankfully, I have a colleague who brings me all the latest tech news even though I have never asked him to. It was the end of fall and my buddy had come over to share a few beers while enjoying the last bit of autumnal warmth. I mentioned that I was never quite cozy in my house during the winter. My friend felt like there was an obvious reason for that. He was certain there had to be a draft which was letting HVAC treated air out and cold outside air in. The very next day he was at my house with one of his electronic toys. Turned out to me a temperature gun. The two of us then spent the rest of that evening creeping around the exterior of my home measuring temperature discrepancies. I was simply astounded by how many different spot were leaking out HVAC warmed air. The temp gun jumped at nearly every window and door. There was even a big leak around the chimney. Thanks to that gadget, I now have a sealed up, cozy house for the winter.
