Cell Phones

Hush · Post by **Hush** » Mon May 14, 2007 8:37 am

I don't know, Saturday morning I went to the Barbershop for my bi-weekly haircut and the guy ahead of me getting his hair cut received a call and the barber had to stop cutting while the guy took the call, he was on the phone for a good 5 minutes and another customer left in disgust, when it was my turn I told the Barber he should put up a sign telling people to turn off their phones or allow voice mail to answer it, he lost business and I was getting pissed although not at him, he agreed and now has a sign up, people can be so rude and unthinking.
Yesterday I was stopped at a stop sign at an intersection (4 way stop), there were three cars to the left of me, the first car to my left should have gone, then my turn next and then the car behind him, what happened? the first car to the left took his turn and it should have been mine when the other two cars behind him just followed him disregarding the stop sign because they had phones glued to their ears.
I have a cell phone which I do not answer while driving or in restaurants or the movies, it vibrates and has voice mail, I use the features, I wish others did also.
I now understand how someone can be a victim of road rage, I feel like borrowing a loaded dump truck and running over some of these people in their cars with their phones glued to their ears.

Rant over, ah, I feel better, if only for the moment.

Using a phone while driving is one of the few thigns I support a ban on.

Women are bad enough drivers as it is, but put a phone in their hand and it becomes downright dangerous.

Some of us use our phones for more important things that dictate we use them, not screen calls with voicemail.

Too baddy bad bad, you had to wait 5 minutes for something, maybe you should try getting thier earlier next time before the line forms.

Hush,

Might I suggest a Caterpillar model 777? http://www.machinerytrader.com/listings ... 15B1CA8A35 Great handling, you can hide a corvette under it, and carry a house in it. Pretty easy to drive, but, get it stuck, even in dry soil, and two D-10 widetrack Cat dozers won't get you out. (Don't ask me how I know)

.........as for "Hiney"...... we can't see your cell phone, so we probably don't think you're nearly as important as you do. It's probably hard to hear the phone with your head up your ass, anyways, isn't it?

"David's just being David. "
Yes, some people walk a tightrope between sanity and insanity and at times lean to one side or the other.

WHATEVER YOU DO... DO NOT... I REPEAT... DO NOT BUY A G3 RAZR TO USE ON THE AT&T/CINGULAR NETWORK!

What happens? Does it just not work?

It was the worst experience ever, it would over-heat - and I mean uncomfortable to hold in your hand hot... it would RANDOMLY reboot itself, even on a call. When trying to play voice mails the keypad would not respond. I'm damned ashamed of MotoRola/AT&T over this - somebody's head needs roll because of this.

I never liked my Razor. I just got an LG Env

I want a near indestructible small thin flip-phone with a battery that will last a week on standby that has a strong blue tooth signal.
