Back in the 90's, I had a pager. People contacted me at all hours of the day and night. It was awful. I felt like I was on a short leash.
I've never owned a cell phone and have little desire to purchase one. I've gotten along just fine without it. The articles that now tie brain cancer to cell phone usage aren't exactly "ringing" endorsements, either.
Annoying people everywhere have the damn things perpetually stuck in their ear. They're in their cars, at the grocery, in a movie theater --all chatting/pecking away like addicts. It's unnerving.
Really, what is the point? Why do you feel the need to be tied to a phone? Why is owning a cell phone so important to you? Is it a status symbol? Is it an emotional crutch? Help me understand.
