Four abortions, including one with the child of Don Henley, who might have been very talented. But career and drugs came first. Priorities.
SHe’s in that class of people who will forever wonder what happen
Why in the world would anyone want his own personal computer? They’re just toys for hobbyists and nerds. Me, circa ‘83/84 timeframe.
Then around ‘92, they came into my office, unplugged my trusty DEC VT220 and plopped down a generic IBM PC. Even though I had 20 years experience as a programmer, I was totally lost. Completely skipped the DOS generation.
Then in ‘94, John introduced me to the Internet (pre-browser) and I said now why in the world would any businessman want to use that?
I still don’t think this personal computer stuff is feasible.
She’s right about half of it.
The smart phone has two functions - one healthy and one unhealthy.
On the one hand, it replaces or enhances many legitimate activities that we would do anyway, such as reading, research, staying informed, telling time, communication, entertainment, etc.
To the extent that these activities are essential, it is not a bad thing that people use a smart phone to do them instead of some other device, like a book, a library, a wristwatch, a telephone, a newspaper, or whatever.
But when it becomes “too easy” to, say, Google a question, we encounter a problem: the relative difficulty of doing all those chores in the past served as a boundary between our time of doing chores, and our time spent with nature - with people.
Most people spend too much time on their smart phones because it’s just too easy.
Another example of this effect is eating. We have made eating too easy. It was healthier when we had to hunt and gather to eat. I doubt anyone that had to do that ever got fat.
So the smart phones are making us the mental equivalent of fat.
I’ve despised Don Henley for a long time because of his politics. Now even more.

If you can find anything on line at all, there’s a little story about him and 2 underage girls and drugs....many years ago.
Lighting projections? Oh. Headlights. Not that I was looking.
I saw what you did there.
This from a woman that had someone to blow coke up her arse.
I have new respect for her.
My android has most “apps” disabled. I do use the Seven Seas: Camera, Calculator, Clock, Calendar, ‘Corder (voice recorder), Contacts & Communicators (the last one is phone & text, so I’m not as much of a luddite as I’d like to be)
Nor is half the country, evidently
She’s getting older too.
I thought she was just some goofy stoner dropout girl from Arizona, but then I found out that her father was a big corporate mogul, so she has less excuse for everything.
Dear Ms. Hannah, ( the author of the piec we),
Yyour idiotic sign off quip about the use of an electronic notepad versus a pen and paper demonstrates everything Ms. Nicks said went in your ear and out your rectum!
The best thing about pen and paper is that it is personal, unackable, and cannot be erased with a push of a button!!
I would politely, non-violently completely disagree with that...😀
It was the 70s. High beams were popular then (as we both remember).
There was a concert special for HBO from her 1981 Bella Donna Tour that opens with her father coming on stage and introducing the crowd, "Please welcome, my daughter, Stevie Nicks."
I later learned that her father chaperoned her on this tour to try to keep the drugs away.
