Yes, I own a cell phone. Yes, I use my cell phone....almost 99.9% on speaker. In general, I'm not a fan of holding a regular phone to my ear so I can strain to hear the caller, or hold it out away from my ear so as not to lose my hearing!
I find myself perplexed though at the amount of people, young & old, who are walking around with a ear piece stuck to the side of their head. Growing up, one of the grossest things that anyone could have happen is for a "friend" to come up unbeknownst to you & stick their finger in your ear!
I enjoy my fair share of technology, but this is one trend that I just do not understand. Are we not to have 5 minutes of peace in our lives? Can we not bear to be alone in our minds at all? I am a huge fan of silence; & I'm a musician! But alas, my truest motto will stand, to each their own.
An honorable mention goes to those people who are still texting/talking while driving despite there being a $155 fine enforced! Oh, to be so important!
