I never thought I'd see the day I said this but I truly don't like all this new technology.

I don't text. Never have and never will. Both of my sons do. And they're so fast! I told them both they were going to get carpal tunnel if they kept it up.

How on earth do people type with their thumbs like that??? I can barely see the keyboard let alone be able to even type with one finger!

I receive text messages on my cell phone and, like River, they get deleted without even being read. Everyone who knows me knows this and I've made it perfectly clear that anything important should be conveyed to me via a phone call.

I remember when the pager became popular. And we thought that was futuristic! Compared to what we have today it was like sending smoke signals!
