I am 26. I use my cell phone a lot. I use it for twitter, txt messaging, and calling. I use twitter to get news, and talk with fellow conservatives. I use text, mostly to talk to my wife throughout the day, while we both are at work. I probably use it to call people, the least. I don’t have a land-line. My wife probably calls people the most. Mostly her mom and sister to talk about their days. I find the cell phone very useful and helpful.
With everything that is useful and helpful, sometimes, I find myself having to make a conscious effort to let it be for a bit. Especially when I am at home with my wife.
WOW
I’m in my 40s, and I don’t understand the fascination either. But then I’ve never enjoyed gabbing on the phone much.
These idiots are oblivious....in public, they block you because they have no idea there are actually other people around them. I love being behind one of them and trying to get by. I say “excuse me” in a normal voice, but of course they don’t hear. My next “EXCUSE ME!!!” makes them jump out of their skin.
My personal experience? About 98% percent of the time someone is driving slow in the passing lane and blocking others, when I finally am able to get past, it’s someone yapping on a phone.

Einstein believe electrons have definite orbits but Heisenberg didn’t hence his uncertainty principle . who was right? Hiesenberg was. Einstein worked his whole life to disprove the uncertainty principle but couldn’t overcome it.

Also about Einstein’s belief in socialism. He was a socialist and Hayek was not . Hayek right again! Einstein 0-2 . loser socialist .wonder why the media idolizez? hmm maybe socialism?
Hayek, who wrote the book Road To Serfdom, the true genius during that time proved that socialism can never work:
Hayek’s (1945) elaboration of the difficulty of aggregating diffuse private knowledge is the best-known articulation of the knowledge problem, and is an example of the difficulty of coordinating individual plans and choices in the ubiquitous and unavoidable presence of dispersed, private, subjective knowledge; prices communicate some of this private knowledge and thus serve as knowledge surrogates.

Yeah, but I always sat there with a low-tech newspaper and never looked up (still do).
A buddy of mine said the other day that he heard I made a pot of soup. I asked him how the heck did he know that. He said my wife posted it to Facebook. I just shook my head and did a facepalm.
I don't get it either. Not even a little bit.
Some conversations you don't want to hear either.
I was behind one lady, waiting to check out at Office Depot, she said "you know" a least hundred times in 5 minutes, LOL.
I mean every sentence ended with "you know", talking away loud as heck.
I swear I think they didn’t get enough attention as children. Now they get to perform for the public. (eyeroll)
I thought that article linked at Fox yesterday re. how we’ve raised a generation of delusional narcissists was spot-on...
It’s getting wierd with the facebook that’s for sure
I only used it to link my blog’s right wing diatribes and get in touch with old friends on occasion, sure don’t get the idea of living out your life on there either
So did I.
Cool. Funny. Luddite. But Einstein never said it...
