"Nice to see an aggressive Conservative. Dont conceded anything to the left. Fight them everywhere." Yep. Cruz's campaign is, in his own words, "modern grassroots guerilla."

I’m bummed. My iPhone is running OS 6. I can’t use it.
I’m waiting for a new phone. It’s going to happen in a month. Curses for me for wanting the pink one,

“Okay, I’m going to embarrass myself.

Conversation I had with someone who was making fun of my dumb phone(flip phone):
Smartphone: Why don’t you get a smart phone?
Dumbphone: I call and text, it does everything I want.
Smartphone: Yeah, but you look dumb with that flip phone.
Dumbphone: I pay $25 a month for unlimited service. Who is smart now?
Smartphone: Uh...uh

LOL!
I’m just not much of a phone person...never have been. And if I have the internet with me when I go out, I know I’ll be distracted.
