1. You accidentally
enter your PIN on the microwave.

2. You haven't
played solitaire with real cards in years.

3. You have a list
of 15 phone numbers to reach your family of three.

4. You e-mail the
person who works at the desk next to you.

5. Your reason for
not staying in touch with friends and family is that they
don't have e-mail addresses.

6. You pull up in
your own driveway and use your cell phone to see if anyone is
home to help you carry in the groceries...

7. Every commercial
on television has a web site at the bottom of the screen


8. Leaving the house
without your cell phone, which you didn't even have the first
20 or 30 (or 60) years of your life, is now a cause for panic
and you turn around to go and get it


10. You get up in
the morning and go on line before getting your coffee

11. You start
tilting your head sideways to smile. : )

12 You're reading
this and nodding and laughing.

13. Even worse, you
know exactly to whom you are going to forward this message.

14. You are too busy
to notice there was no #9 on this list.

15. You actually
scrolled back up to check that there wasn't a #9 on this list

~~~~~~~~~~~AND
FINALLY~~~~~ ~~~~~~~

NOW U R LAUGHING at yourself.


NOW GO LICK YOUR ELBOWS

Thanks for the laugh, Roy!!! :biggrin::biggrin::biggrin:

I did EVERY one of those things on the list, and now I feel like a real window-licker on the short bus!! :bulgy-eyes:
 
I was guilty of #8 once. Now I will leave it at home on purpose and have a stress free day. I should say mostly stress free. When I get back home, my wife gives birth to a cow because "if something terrible happened she would not be able to get a hold of me!!!!!!!"

Definitely guilty of #9
 
Roy,
Too funny. My kids actually enjoy bowling on the Wii more than they do for real. My 5 year old holds the house record at 285. Go figure.
 
Pretty funny Roy. I'm guilty of #10. I actually check my work email from my phone before I get out of bed.
 
Out of date

1-no, 2-yes, 3-4-5-6-no, 7-yes, 8-10-11-12-no, 13-I don't forward, 14-no, and 15 no.

From that list I'd say that while I'm on line quite a bit my life is not ruled by my cellphone - which stays in my truck in case of accident or breakdown. No one but my wife has the number and she probably forgot where she put it, but that wouldn't matter because it is turned off anyway. I do not and never will text. In my opinion that is almost as dumb as walking around with a cell phone stuck in your ear like it was another body part.

But the list is worth a chuckle...:biggrin:
 
These are going to get passed around to many others. Thanks for the listings. At least I have not been guilty of any of them that in any way relate to a mobile phone as I do not own one, have never owned one, and I never will own one.

I find it interesting to watch folks walk around texting in the mall or where ever they may be. Watch out for these type at the esculator of elevator.

Now driving is a totally new experience these days as 'people' drive and text. These folk I like to get in front of and pop on my brake lights at 50-70 MPH. An air horn really gets their attention as well.

Ah yes, the rear end of a hugh Peterbilt tractor rig is definitely dent proof. :eek:
 
#more: Your wife emails you to come in from the shop because you are more likely to notice the notification sound than pounding on the door.
