Cell Phones Part 2

I don't want to hear anymore about how I need to get a cell phone.

Yesterday, I called three different people on their cell phones and left voice messages for them. There was information I needed from them ASAP. I did not receive a response from any of them. No return calls. None. Nothing. Nada. Cero. No Dice. No Andrew. No Clay. Zippo. Harpo. Oprah.

So how is this different from me only having a land line with an answering machine? People have said to me, "Brandon, what if I need to get ahold of you immediately?" Well, looks like a cell phone doesn't necessarily solve that problem, now does it?

So you can take your fancy cell phones with your Muzak ringtones and your diamond encrusted.....oh hey, that reminds me. There is a woman at my work who sent off her cell phone to the East Coast so that she could have it bedazzled with lots of shiny fake jewels. I think she paid $150. She said she got a great deal.

Folks, paying more than $5 to decorate your phone is more ridiculous than the fact that I still own and use an address book with names and phone numbers written in it. Maybe I should blog about all the old timey things I still do and have.
