cellular telephones

Have you ever thought about turning off your cell phone for one single day and not using it? I have many times, but i honestly don't think I would be able to go 24 hours without my phone. I have an HTC Evo, so it isn't just a phone. It is texting, calling, facebook, twitter, blogger, games, email, an 8 megapixel camera, a link to the world, the cure for boredom, the whole nine yards.
So if I went 24 hours without a phone I would think about suicide and or dying 15 times more in a day than I would while having my phone. Not that I am actually suicidal, it crosses everyone's mind. Neat little interesting ways to die, such as: the most popular one getting hit by a bus, or if some part of a Boeing 737/747 was to break off and fall 30,000 feet to the top of your head killing you instantly, or one of my personal favourites, peeing on an electric fence, even going to the bank to cash your check you got from working those dreadful 40 hours this week, to have the bank get robbed and you get shot for standing at the teller station that the robber wanted to use.
But anyway the moral of this blog is I keep getting calls waking me up. But I am still the one that refuses to turn my ringer off, because I would rather answer that call than sleep. It could be the girlfriend who did call earlier, my sister who also called not to long ago, it could be a potential employer, Bill Gates (Like that one is likely). It could be anyone, and all you have to do is answer. The President is trying to get everyone a cell phone with his "Obama Phones." Its a great idea in my humble opinion. But there is no way I could ever live without my phone.
