Oh, some definitely are!

hookedupin2005 Loc: Northwestern New Mexico

Yeah I am.... my microwave, my coffee pot, my toaster..
And there are many times when I leave my phone at home, which freaks out my friend...."What if you miss a call?"
"I'll call back when I get home!" DUH!

I'll second that. She who must be obeyed and I, each use Tracfone flip phones and the only one who knows my phone number is her and vice versa. We each "burn up" about $99.00 annually for minutes and have never run out yet. We have a hard wired home phone and have had the same number for over 40 years. It is attached to an answering device and ALL calls are screened and about 5% are actually answered. I can find dozens and dozens of things to do other than chatting meaningless drivel on a phone and I have never sent or received a text message. I guess I am not a very good customer to AT&T.

Ha! "She" made an impression on you, too. I say She who must be ignored. We both laugh.

DAN Phillips Loc: Graysville, GA

I hate it when people go into a public restroom and use the phone instead of taking care of business!
Others are in line!
Very inconsiderate!

I tossed away my cell phone in 1999; and, have never looked back! I have a landline at home that works just fine! Even when the power goes out, the electric company (PG&E) calls me to tell me the power is out; how many addresses are affected; and, "Power is expected to be restored by 11 AM, etc". I have a bundle of maps in the car (about a hundred or so) that conveniently fits in a single tote bag that fits in the car next to the jack and lug wrench; and, the spare tire. Before I leave my house, I print out a map and directions (if I am going to an unfamiliar location). . And, when I leave my home "area" I print out a list of ALL the Public Radio (and, other" radio stations) that play classical music every where in the US and Canada. I have a very nice wrist watch which I ONLY wear when I MUST be somewhere at a specific time (of course, I DO have the clock on the car radio <smile>.). And, I discovered when I got older that I actually can wake up in the morning (within 15-20 minutes) of when I NEED to wake up. I am somewhere in my mid-80's now; and, I do things MANUALLY as an "exercise" to keep my mind alert and active (FENDING OFF dementia my doctor says!). And, I demand PAPER statements for ALL monthly bills, etc! . . .And, y'all wanna know a secret? The sun still comes up in the morning. . (Even on cloudy days when the sun is blocked from view!). And, last time we had a forest fire that threatened my home, the Sheriff came by to tell me "Brian, ya gotta get outta here. . Right NOW!" "How close are the flames?" I asked. "Look over my shoulder!" he said! And, there they were. . about 200 yards away! I got out. . .And, stayed out for 10 days. . .I found out when I could return, when I asked the desk clerk at the hotel; and, he told me "It's OK for you to go home!" NO DIGITAL DEVICE NEEDED.

Graveman Loc: Indiana

I sometimes forget my phone at home, I just tell the boss, "I'll be working all day at the Nature Preserve. If you need me come and find me" Sure cuts down on the BS calls.

Of course, we are slaves to them, but that seems to be okay - so far.

kpmac Loc: Ragley, La

I don't even know how to check for a text on my phone. And I am proud of that fact.
