She shouts, she claims she can't hear, she asks, Are you there? It's madness! Sheer madness!

    I didn't say I was too old to text. That's not why I love my rotary phone. You're really pushing the reading between the lines. I just have WAY more fun things to do than text "I'm on my way home." I just go home and then do real stuff, not text about it, or watch a tv show about it.

    This isn't a issue about Luddites being afraid of technology. It's about a guy who critizes his wife for doing things "the wrong way", and feeling like he has to know where she is every hour. Control. That's what it's about: control. It's not aout technophobes.

    I love new technology, new music, new clothes. I also love old retro stuff. Don't mean I"m heading for the nursing home just cuz I'm over 40 or I'm afraid to use one of those newfangled Ipods. It just means I am too busy having fun to text you about it.

    stop trying to embarass people who are DISINTERESTED in texting, not afraid.
