In a nutshell, yes. I make lots of calls (non-robo) to clients during the day. The cell phone is awkward and radiates cosmic rays to my brane. I feel this is the safer solution overall. I could wear the helmet but then I can't hear very much.
Going to dump my land line finally. Can't stand the robo calls. I was holding up doing it and then was wondering if I could still use my phone set somehow.
So just found this out today that the newer handsets (I'm looking a Pansonic) can have blue tooth built in. You sync your phone to the main set and then the calls can route through all the sets. Your phone has to be within blue tooth range of the main unit but I don't see a problem with that. Panasonic calls that link2cell.
Forget the 'not land line' new phone and get you a nice blutoof ear piece. The better devices sound and work great plus you can wear one inside of your helmet.
blutoof? Never heard of that one.
C'mon Jim, we really need that face- palm emoticon..... please? It is not so much me asking as it is the world demanding it..... over and over again.
This one?
All modern pistols have anti-drop safeties, so that would have had to fail, too.
"He landed and as he picked up his gun from the floor, it fired."
And there you have it, *HE* fired it, accidentally, by having his finger in the trigger guard area when he picked it up. Almost even visible in the video. It didn't go off from being dropped.
"Denver police spokesman Marika Putnam said she does not know what type of gun the agent was carrying."
So we also don't know what it was- old, new, service or what.
Now this one is destined to be a classic: https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/post-nation/wp/2018/06/03/an-fbi-agent-did-a-backflip-in-a-club-dropped-his-gun-and-accidentally-shot-someone-police-say/?utm_term=.296e52f4469c
It will be interesting to see how this one turns out. There were several phases of this that were more than 'bad enough', starting off with dropping a firearm while dancing, but the coup de grace is that the agent just walked away from the person he shot without rendering aid or even accessing the situation. ?!?!?!?!?!?!

I felt so good I went out and rode the Indian 200 miles yesterday.
unless it is as simple there were far more Munchkins than there were dogs in that movie?
And now for something entirely different. Some years (more than I can count) ago I misplaced my primary fob (the one with the key). I know I hadn't lost it because I had got home on the bike and the bike wasn't complaining about fob out of range. Looked over and over for it in the garage and in the house and no luck. I had thought I had put it down somewhere and it slid into a box that got thrown out. So not wanting to lose the second one, I attached a chain to it and always clipped that to my belt loop. Only way I could lose it now was to lose my pants. Fast forward to day before evening... Wife comes down the stairs and asks me what is this in her hand. Oh heck yes, I need that. It's the primary fob to the C14. Where was it? It was in a drawer she was cleaning out. I felt so good I went out and rode the Indian 200 miles yesterday.
... It was either in the house or thrown out inadvertently, hence the chain and fastening to the belt loop. If that fob got lost then I was going to get lost with it.
Snip...
However, being the eternal pessimistic optimist, I knew that the other fob would show up at some time or another or not.
