(I love the SL Jackson option for Alexa, even if he's not a complete Alexa replacement.)
no subject
he has told me "Good night and naughty dreams"
he says the time, temperature, and weather forecast
he tells joke: How many snakes does it take to screw in a lightbulb? Who cares? As long as they stay off the goddman plane!
and, most epicly, he reads the entire book of "Go the F*** to Sleep."
Still saying. best. 99 cents. spent. ever.
