I want you to know I went into the Verizon store to active my new phone...I have witnesses to this...before I was out the door...Mr. B called me 4 times...My daughter snatched it from me and told him to leave me be. I'll be home later after snacks and margaritas at Chi Chi's  with her..don't worry she's bring dinner home with her...lol

My collar and leash have been activated again....

Grow...you have to learn the art of "letting it go to voicemail".

OH I do,I,do....then get yelled at by all of them...You should hear  the house phone machine..

" ma...pickup,pickup,pickup,pickup...I know your screening your calls."...No...I'm out working...

Mr B calls to me...you just got a text,not once,3 times..I finally yell back..So what?!...It'l won't be going away!!!!

What I need is one I can call out on only and never receive calls.. BTW.Bought a bright lime green Otter case for it.like a road crew shirt...If I loose this one they'll  know it was on purpose...lol

If I dont answer a text in 1 minuite they start calling.After the 3rd call I answer and they say what are you doing. What do you think I am doing? Talking to you on the phone. I was busy but the phone will not stop so I figured I would stop doing what I was doing just to answer the phone to be asked what you are doing. Are you dead or dieing? Is someone else dead or dieing? No? Then why am I not getting things done. They usually hang up and the phone goes dead for the rest of the day.

My mother in law gets on facetime in a resturaunt.  She is the %#$@ rudest person in world.  After the first time she did it I told my wife to tell her to knock that ---- off. Not only is is rude but they do not understand how that could get me into a fight.  You should have seen the looks she was getting.  I bought the table next to us a round of drinks explaining that I have to live with her..........

People in general are way too concerned about what other people are doing, and are way too concerned about what other people might think they are doing. Technology didn't start this, but it has certainly ramped it up. When you mind your own business today you're considered an out-of-touch troglodite or a flat-out luddite. I'm neither.

My cell-phone is for outgoing calls only and those are restricted to emergencies only. The only reason I have it is in case I plop over on the hill and need to tell somebody about it (if I can). My wife makes me carry it. It never gets used. It is one of those pre-paid "not-so-smart" phones. Nobody has the number and it is never turned on, so I can't be harassed by the darned thing.
