Happy Easter.

For those that celebrate easter, HAPPY EASTER!!!

Now that’s over with, I saw an article titled, Lose cell phone, get cast away from society. I can relate to that but more with my Blackberry since it’s more or less my little world. I have EVERYTHING on my 8310. I’m horible with birthday’s and I know that I should memorize dates like my kids birthdays and other important things but as I get older and since my TIA’s, my memory hasn’t been as good as it used to be and I find myself looking at my BB for everything. Each day starts off with me waking up to it as my alarm anyhow and I spend at least 10 minutes reading my emails in the morning before I even think about crawling out of bed anyhow.

I remember back when only the VERY RICH had cell phones and they were built into the cars themselves, not something so small now that you can fit them in the coin pocket of a pair of jeans. Has technology made us dumber and lazier? I say yes it has and anyone that says no should really try to go without their cell phone, computer, PDA, cable or satellite TV for a month or even a solid week and see how it affects them. This includes dealing with family/personal/work emergencies or anything else that your device does.

For me, I’m shutting my 8310 down for the rest of the day and putting it in a drawer and listening to the radio while I enjoy this special day with my wife and kids.
