Westward. So how is it these days when something breaks, we find ourselves in a fix. Unable either to repair it on our own or find anybody else who can . A conundrum david pogue will explore this morning. Our machines are getting more complex to more expensive, from our phones to a trackers.

Reporter but then something happened that got him off the couch. Keith urban, later on sunday morni
