Must plow through the detritus with blinders firmly on. Once caught in
the quagmire of YouTube you are lost for the day. God forbid something
links me into FaceBook, which will link me into YouTube, which takes
me out to HULU.
Life is too short.
Yeah, I know. Fortunately, I don't do FaceBook, and I don't yet know
what HULU is ... although I guess I could Google it.
I watched a young lady at the dog park yesterday. She got a message on
her iPhone (white) at least every minute, and replied to every one
faster than I can type with a keyboard. I hope she's not crippled in
the thumbs by the time she's 30.
I'm safe from that. I don't have an iPhone, and the battery on my cell
phone is only good for a couple of hours. Don't have text messaging or
internet on the phone.
All I have on the cell phone is it rings if someone does happen to call
and voice mail in case the battery is dead or I forgot to take it off
the charger when I left the house.
