Cell phones

[Radbird]

With my wife & I having 3 aging parents and a kid in college, so I want to be accessable anytime. And the cell phone also allows me to take business calls from anywhere I happen to be - on a dog walk, at my mom's house, at the store, etc.

I don't have to worry about staying put because the phone might ring while I'm gone. It's actually very liberating.

I have a land line in my house and I honestly don't even know the number. No one ever calls that number except telemarketers anyway.

No clue what my phone # is. There's a phone hooked up to the line, but I've turned the volume down all the way.

But Jim, what if you're out fishing and someone needs to get in touch wi .... oohhhh, I see. Never mind.

You got it!

I understand most uses for cell phones, but that one escapes me. Fortunately most of the places that I fish cell phones don't work anyway.

I keep seeing that "Can you hear me now?" commercial and I laugh. Slip down into a steep and narrow valley in SW Wisconsin and your phone isnt' going to work. Period.
