Default Re: My Generation

I agree with Katy and other posters about the cell phone usage. It kills me how it seems their lives revolve around their cell phones and texting each other.

I remember a while back, my wife and I were out to dinner at Bennigan's and 4 20 somethings came in, sat down, and all 4 were on their cell phones 5 seconds after sitting down for at least 10 minutes. Plus, they'd be on them on and off throughout dinner. Whatever happened to going out with friends and just talking to each other? I've seen the same thing many other times as well.

I always tease my nieces, who are in college now, about text messaging. I'd always say, "Isn't it easier to just dial their number and actully talk to them?"
They'd usually reply that they couldn't do that because they were in class, which would open a whole new avenue of grief that I could give them. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
