People Local Enough to Be REAL Tired of Me
Actual "Photographic" Images
Because there's nothing more fun than forcing people to look at your own photo albums, here's an online version. I can't force you to look at it. I can't even force myself to think you'd want to. But here it is. Oh, the places you'll go!

Thst is extremely funny. I hueass you're not going to explain this whole thing. Let's just say "SmartType" doesn't make me smart.
You wouldn't believe how many messages I get back that simply say "huh"
For the doubters, I read and responded to this post on my BlackBerry. The greatest invention ever!

I think it says in the owners manual "when using T9 word prediction, it is not necessary to recheck what you think you might have said in the text." This is reassuring that a certain mutual friend who is a really awesome guy read his owners manual. On the other hand, when you need to know the rules for Texas Hold'em, it seems to come in handy.

i find these allegations totally unsubstantiated.

The iPod touch?
Posted by: Jim | April 23, 2008 at 08:59 PM
Ok, I was wrong Brant. I can admit it. I'm not proud. According to PC World, the Blackberry is the 14th Greatest Invention EVER!

My name is Fay and I'm a CrackBerry addict. I knew I'd hit rock bottom when I developed Blackberry Thumb, and could barely scroll through songs on my iPod or use my computer's trackpad.
The solution? I streamlined my Inbox to receive less mail, stopped sending so many text messages and set the BlackBerry to "phone only." Now there's a concept -- a phone that's just a phone.
Plus, the grammar and spelling mistakes were so embarrassing. A potential employer once responded to a job application, asking me to resend my resume. I was so psyched, I didn't want to wait until I got home so I replied from the CrackBerry. He'll think I'm busy and important, not just sitting around unemployed, I thought. I sped through the message, which went like this:
Should I send the resume ass attachment?
Thank you,
Fat Shakes
I wonder why I never heard from them?

AHAHAHAHAAAA!! Fay, that was great! :)
I am proud to say I do not own a Blackberry, I cannot figure out how to use the T9 thingy, and I use all 152 characters available when I text the two people I bother texting from my cell phone. I use whole words and complete sentences, then I go back and re-read my text before sending. Basically, I refuse to join the masses on this one...

This post was lame until Fay made me spew diet coke on my laptop
Posted by: RevJeff | April 24, 2008 at 03:27 PM
Yeah, well, your *comment* was lame, until that part about you spewing Diet Coke on your laptop.
Posted by: Brant | April 24, 2008 at 04:31 PM
Yeah well, I still have a phone that doesn't take photos!!!! And I dress myself!
Posted by: RevJeff | April 25, 2008 at 12:15 PM
I don't have one, but my boss does - which is one reason I don't have one.
I just feel sorry for all the kids who can't get their parents attention, because their OCD parents are always distracted by the blackberry.
Posted by: Brady | April 25, 2008 at 01:53 PM
Bwahahaha! My iPhone is just as bad for that. Maybe worse, since you don't have physical buttons. But then, I have that excuse. . .
I struggled for a bit whether my desire for an iPhone was idolatrous, or materialistic. Then I lost my Razr off the Alpengeist roller coaster at Busch Gardens Europe, and had to get something. I'm not sure all my friends believed that was an accident.

Laughing out loud..........
I do not own a Blackberry.
I do not own an IPod.
I do not own an IPhone.
I do not have Blue Tooth.
I have a $20 TracPhone which I don't use more than a couple times a year.
Hubby refuses to carry a cell phone at work. He says it just gives people excuses to bother him 20 million times a day when he's trying to get some work done.

((in reality my husband laughs at me because I write my texts with proper spelling and punctuation. Then he laughs even harder because when he points it out to me, I erase my well written post to try and use text-ese.))

I'll have to check with my pastor, he has one.
I do have a cell phone that can both make and receive calls.
