I'm with you on most of that buddy.... Us old guys just think things should work in a different way. We have seen a lot of changes in our time here on earth. We have seen the evolution of many things and had to adapt too them. And hey, what the hell, we even get to live longer to see more of it...
I run the Motorola Droid Razors Android Phones. But all this changes sooooooooo Fast !!! here today and changed tomorrow. We just have to try to stay with the changing times. Keep your chin up, Keep fighting the good fight.

Bob, the salesman had to show me how.....

I have been staying with one brand of phone trying to make it easier.

For years I felt that a smartphone was the dumbest thing ever, I've had a cellphone sense 1991, the kids were the ones that were bugging us for smart phones, I just thought it was ridiculous.
Then in 2014 I dusted off my CDL and drove for 8 months or so and I decided weather and location information would be nice, now I use it for most everything.
But I'm not one of those people that walk around staring at there phone in a daze lost to the world. Lol

I have worked in the Technology Field for over 25 years and feel that Technology is our downfall as a society. Yes, it has made some things easier but has also made us lazy and taught the youth of today how to hide behind technology and say what they want behind our backs but not to our faces.
