When at a store, it usually appears I’m the only customer without a cellphone attached to my ear.

I can relate to this article when it comes to rest/sleep. If I leave my smart-phone right next to the bed, I have a tough time staying asleep. It seems that in my dream state, my brain comes up with reasons to want to reach over and check the web or mail, even though when I wake up I personally couldn’t care less and just want to go back to sleep.
If I leave it in the other room, I sleep much more soundly. This is not scientific, of course, and sounds utterly crazy, but it does seem that my brain does not go into hibernate the way it should based on the availability of the phone.

Cellphones, which in the last few years have become full-fledged computers with high-speed Internet connections, let people relieve the tedium of exercising, the grocery store line, stoplights or lulls in the dinner conversation. Stoplights? How empty is your bloody head that you get bored waiting for a light to change?

I skimmed the article while parking the car and entering the gym and getting on the treadmill.
No idea what he’s talking about.
If you turn off your digital thingies, you start having strange thoughts in your head.
Gotta go, someone’s twitting me about coming down to the gym.

There is one thing the current generation is most definitely *not* short on, and that's mental down time.
If anything, they're all stuck in neutral and need a rolling push to get going, and God willing, pop the clutch.
Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.

Forget the gym. Some of my co-workers talk on their cell phones while they’re in the bathroom!
