Sebazz1 2 #51 April 3, 2003 I fought off the rush to get internet several years ago but eventually broke down about two years ago. The same thing with a cell phone. I fought off the urge, fought off the urge, then finally I broke down when my GF at the time pretty much made it pretty clear I needed one. Well I'm glad I have one now. I rarely use it as I almost always forget it in the car or at home, but I have one... I am one of those folks you will have to drag into the 21st century kicking and screaming Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

riggerrob 643 #53 April 3, 2003 Last fall I finally got a cell phone and got my boss to pay for it. Officially the cell phone is so I can be on call to refuel visiting helicopters with Jet A, but U have gotten far more use out of it than my boss. I suspect that half the reason he gave me a cell phone is that a cell phone is cheaper than wiring the loft for a phone. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jceman 1 #56 April 4, 2003 Yep. it is my primary phone, have the land lines mainly for computer use. Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money. Why do they call it "Tourist Season" if we can't shoot them? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skychic68 0 #57 April 4, 2003 It is all screwed up. Kids don't need phones. Whatever happened to the old fashion days of parents making their kids stay in the house. Why would anyone really want to be located anytime anyplace???? Peace and R&RQue sera sera Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

billvon 2,998 #59 April 4, 2003 >Whatever happened to the old fashion days of parents making their kids stay in the house. When was that? Wasn't true when I was a kid, or when my parents were kids. I think kids have pretty much always been kids, and will run around no matter what bit of electronics they carry. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skychic68 0 #60 April 4, 2003 I was being fececious (SP) Kids are just too far ahead of themselves today. If they spent more time at home getting to know their parents, this generation Y of our might not be so bad off. Our young generation is aweful. Has cell phones and technology contributed? Perhaps. Let's hear your feedback. Que sera sera Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
