Pedometer vs Ankle monitor

Pedometers - totally unfashionable tracking devices to show your daily mileage walked. Ankle monitor aka tether -a device that individuals under house arrest are often required to wear.

As my daughter and I are staring out the window waiting for my sister to finish up some work in her downtown office, we see a group of men walking together.
My daughter announces, “Wow those men are totally fitness aware! Look they all have pedometers strapped on!”  I look and shake my head, “No darling those are ankle monitors, they are most likely walking in a group because there is a halfway house for alcohol/drug offenders on this block and they all have driving privileges revoked!”
She frowns, and states another funny..”Well darn, here I was all pleased I even remembered what those goofy plastic things are, and here I coulda said ankle bracelets all along!” 

Child is FUNNY!
