The Phones are Goin' Crazy!

Half way through our dinner my friend Dave, sitting diagonally accross the table from me text messaged everyone at our table - HAPPY NEW YEAR. What is this world coming to? Technology these days is becoming a big joke. Couldn't he just SAY that to us, or raise a glass and propose a toast?? NOoooooo.

We have such different ways of expressing our emotions these days. Thanks to texting, blogging, and all the rest - we are now officially choose to relate feelings to one another in every alternative possible. Being direct takes on a whole new meaning...

Some might say it's crazy to play around with a piece of technology rather than simply look up and speak to one another, but hey - whipping out our digital cameras and cell phones every three minutes at the dinner table is a heck of a lot healthier than lighting cigarettes and smoking throughout the meal.
