I never got that ‘texting’ thing. Why ‘text’ when it’s easier to just TALK................

I remember back in 2002, I got my then 16 yo daughter a cell phone. We went to the phone store and the clerk asked if she wanted ‘texting’ included on the list of options. She said yes and I said,”Why? most of your friends can’t read, anyway.” I thought the clerk was going to die laughing.................

LOL Funny story.

I think a cell phone for 5 year olds is either out or will coming out soon.

Not good.

It isn't. I can send a text message and communicate the information I need to in less time than it takes a phone call to connect. If the person at the other end is busy, he can read a text message later. It's more efficient and less intrusive.
