[No.88]

@madmonday:

I got a buddy that does restaurant stuff that I'm going to ask about this phone / electronic device phenomenon  . . .

I completely forgot. I did this last October on a trip to NYC at JFK. But it was done on an ipad.

Edit: I have often pondered knocking over a glass of water, accidentally-on-purpose, when there is a smartphone within its radius, and inwardly chortle at the unfolding meltdown of its owner.

@No.88:

… ps I do not own a smartphone. I have a payg Nokia 6100 that I've had for ever. I only ever turn it on when I'm travelling & need to get hold of the office. Which is rare.

  Perfect! … same here - Nokia 6300

Yep, here another smartphone repudiator. My 6300 is over 7 years on duty, which smartphone can say that?

Time to fess up…..

I have an iPhone 6S+ and love it.  It is the cause of much phone envy from @Madame Buttonfly.  Prior to getting this, my phone was used mainly as a phone and wifi hub.  Now I can actually work on the thing and given how much I travel, it has transformed my trips away….

A phone is for phone .. period

If people are using their phone for conducting their business affairs, & not running into me in the street or tapping away on it at our dining table, or taking poxy photos of themselves every 5 minutes, I have no issues & they have their place.

I really want to go on a rant about how much I hate SXSW but I want to wait until its over to see if I have any stories about how ridiculous it is this year first…

Forgot today begins Daylight Savings Time.  I hate Daylight Savings Time.

I miss living in Arizona, one of the few places that refuses to participate in the stupidity of "spring forward, fall back."

^I have to log into work tonight to update a rota system that is based on PST. Why on earth it was not built on UTC I will never understand.
