No, really. WJLX station general manager Brett Elmore says he’s seen it all now. The station’s radio tower just vanished.

🤳🏼 Ever had one of those “oops” moments taking pictures? You know, when your hand wobbles and your photo becomes as elusive as a Bigfoot sighting (or, in my case, my dog, Abby, doing something super cute)?

Before you rush to delete it, hang tight! Most phones have a built-in “sharpness” feature. If you’re looking for the quickest fix, this is probably it.

For iPhone: 

• Open the Photos app and select the blurry photo.
• Tap Edit in the top right corner. Scroll through the Adjust menu until you find Sharpness.
• Slide your finger left or right on the bar to make the photo sharper. Hit Done to finish up.

For Android:

• Open the Gallery app and choose the blurry photo. 
• Tap the Edit icon in the bottom row. 
• Tap the Brightness icon and scroll until you find Sharpness. 
• Slide your finger left or right on the bar to make the photo sharper. Hit Save.

Note: Steps may vary. Newer Android phones may also have an Unblur feature under Gallery Tools. Adjust the slider to improve your image.

That’s from September 2023 to December 2023. They blame the “substantial price increase.” Ya think? It’s now double the original cost.

That’s with their carry-ons on a plane. How do we know? Finnair started weighing passengers. It’s not about your airport snacks or waistline. It’s to check if the plane is heavier in winter or summer.

That’s for a nine-acre compound home in Naples, Florida. It includes three homes and a private yacht basin — and would set a new real estate record if it sells for even close to the asking price.

Yeah, turns out SUVs and pickup trucks are too heavy to turn into efficient electric vehicles.

One more Amazon stock surge and a Tesla dip could make him the world’s wealthiest person. Btw, Bezos has added $18 billion to his wealth this year; Elon is down 29%.

Android and iPhone cams have built-in photo timers. That means you don’t have to ask a stranger to take your pic — or worse. My friend handed her phone to someone to take a photo of her and her daughter, but the guy ran away and stole it.

For iPhone:

• Prop your phone against something stable, like a rock. Or maybe you’re a smarty-pants and brought a tripod. This one is affordable and small enough to tuck anywhere.
• Once your phone is steadied, open your Camera app and tap the up-facing arrow at the top of your screen to display the app’s secondary menu. Scroll right in this menu to the option that looks like a clock, then tap it.
• Choose between a three- or 10-second delay. For more time to get everyone positioned, pick 10 seconds. 

On Android:

• Head to your phone’s camera app, select Timer and turn it on. 
• Select from a delay of two, five or 10 seconds. Time to shine!

👉 Why were photographers so depressed before digital cameras were invented? They spent too long processing the negatives. (Too bad only anyone over 35 will get that one!)

Are expected to bet $23.1 billion on Sunday’s Super Bowl. A new record! Add the $20 bet I just made with Andrew on Kim Komando Today to that total. I’m going with the 49ers.
