Because I'm still visiting Bubby and haven't had time to actually write anything for a few days now ...

And because I recently received a link to this video (I love VSL) ...

And because this video relates to the cell phone hell Jim and I have dealt with since he got his new job in an AT&T dead zone that is nearly as bad as the AT&T dead zone we enter when visiting his family in South Dakota ...

Because of all of the above -- but mostly just because I think it's cool -- I'm posting this video instead of an actual personalized post.* It's about 5 minutes long but it's interesting and semi-amusing, especially if you've ever been frustrated by cell phone service that doesn't come though when you need it to most.

*A post requiring true use of my brain cells writing skills is soon forthcoming.

Today's question of the day:

How long ago did you get your first cell phone?

I hate talking on the phone so I didn't get a cell phone until five or six years ago, and then I kept it turned off except for when I needed to call someone; I didn't allow incoming calls. I still use it only occassionally ... and more often than not it's for texting. (No matter the medium, I prefer writing over talking.)
