My Director of Finance decided that we all needed to upgrage our cell phones so he outfitted me yesterday with a new blackberry (I always thought that was something to eat but I was wrong). The past couple days I have been frustrated just trying to figure out how to answer the thing.
He said we needed these things so the staff could text message important information among ourselves. I just don't understand why they think texting is so much easier than just calling and talking. Besides that, I know how to spell the old fashioned way so none of them can read my messages. I am NOT going to wear one of those stupid looking contraptions on my ear. I guess I am just too old.
Anyway, thanks for the kind words. I hope you, Daisy, and the kids have a good year too.
Wow, my jaw is hitting the floor. You may be the very first man over the age of 45 (I'm making an assumption here) who doesn't consider a blue tooth the ultimate fashion statement. You mean you don't walk around with one permanently stuck to your ear? You don't talk to yourself in public places? You don't flash a blue light during the Sunday sermon? Man, you are out of the loop. (snicker)
I noticed that too; they're all old guys. They're obnoxious, annoying, and rude. And besides, those things clamped on their ears look stupid.
I have already received about three or four tickets for seatbelt violations and that hasn't changed me so, it's inevitable; I'll probably get cited for driving while talking. I don't know what the problem is. I can eat, talk on the cell phone, write, and read whild driving. It's called "multi-tasking."

We all probably have a Velma in our families. Unfortunatly, I think I'm the Velma in mine. Happy New Year Mr. Petersen.

I heard that the Anti-Christ has a blue tooth also.
