I was sitting at my usual breakfast table when a song began to play on the radio. I LOVE to download stuff to my ipod, but I never know the names of these songs, so I always ask the young people around me "What's the name of the song and who is singing it'?

They usually say "Justin Timberlake or someone famous, and they know the name of the song.

WELL, WAIT UNTIL YOU HEAR THIS.

I'm sitting at my table, and the guy who works there, John, is 18 years old. I said: "John who is singing this, I want to download it to my Ipod when I get home".

His reply????

"WAIT, I HAVE TO ASK MY PHONE".

I just looked at him, I thought I was in a Star Trek movie.

I said "you have to do what???"

And he goes "my phone will tell me".

I said: 'Your phone will do WHAT??"

He burst out laughing and said "oh you don't know that phones tell you stuff".

I said "OH MY GOD, I'M OLD AS THE HILLS".

He burst out laughing and said "watch this!!!"

He walks around the room, aims the phone at the air (as if to pick up a signal or something).

He looks at me and says: "now look at my phone".

The phone indicated it was LISTENING.

I said: "what the hel* is going on?" I was getting spooked.

The phone then indicated the artist, the name of the song, and asked him if he wanted to download the song, or save it as a ringtone.

I HAVE NOW JOINED THE FUTURE.

I must get a job, and get me one of these phone thingees!!!

God I love Technology!!!
