The Other View

I absolutely hate it most of the time! Good to have in an emergency.....if you can get a signal......:)

My son and husband go into a panic mode at the thought of no cell phone!

i got one of those,pay as you go phones,2 years ago and i think ive charged the battery twice since i've had it

I cannot function without my cell phone! I have too much stuff in it (backed up on net) and it's so convenient to have - it's my lifeline.

I had a long road trip a few weeks ago to Decatur IL and about 10 miles out of town realized I had forgotten my cell - I had to turn around and get it!

Hey, some people like puffing on a cigarette, some need their sodas, I NEED my cell. Oh BOOGEDY...where is it now....son of %$#^* it fell in my coffee! Holy *$@#!

J/K!

I a stay at home mom so I don't need a iphone. A plain old cell will do for me. I will turn around in the sub. if I forget it. Once I leave the sub. forget it.

I think I would like to go camping someday for a week without any thing electronic...... I think it would be the best mental vacation in the world...... Hiking fishing cooking some good old fashioned meals and ....""(Sleeping)""......

I have only had mine for less than a year and it is a pay as you go phone...yes I could go and do without mine!

Now I have some friends who wouldnt do so well....lol

I like my cell phone mostly for texing and storing phone numbers ( cant remember the date half the time let alone a phone number ) hub works nites and I days so we can connect thru tex messeges. I do feel safer having one while traveling Pagers ..lol they were top of the line in their day ... as im sure regular ole cell phones will be someday

Truman and I have a Tracphone for emergency's only if we are in the car. He uses his to call me when he get's to work and when leaving work as the road's he take's to work scare's me silly.Mine I only turn on once in awhile. Now I did take it with me today as my phone has lot's more number's in it than Truman's. I don't have voice mail set up on them either. Everyone normal call's me on our home phone. I call the kid's as they can't live without their cell,I let it ring twice they call me back. It don't cost me long distance on the home phone and don't use the minute's on our trac. I use our phone's more today as everyone knew to call Truman's phone about our daughter who is sick and we had to go to Pacific for an appointmenty. I also used mine 3 time's today. Woot! Woot! I turn mine on about once a month. Truman's is on all the time. While back they stopped my servixce when I called them they said I needed an upgrade. I said why I never use the one I have plus I am use to it. I don't wanna spend money on a new one when the old one work's fine. They sent me a phone free. Had to go a week without it but I didn't need it anyway.I can go along time without it and if we forget his we don't turn around to get it either.
Now ask me about my computer. Heck no I can't go a day without it.

My oldest daughter and all her friends just drive me crazy with their cell phones! All day long texting,exchanging ringtones, and endless nonsense. I wonder what poor old A.Bell would think?

Never had a cell phone til last fall, finally broke down and got on for my horseshoeing business. Does come in handy for that and has saved a lot of miles by clients calling and being able to shoe one more horse on the way home and not having to back tract the next day. It has become a habit, but when i'm busy doing something else its on the shelf in the barn and i check the messages at nite when there's service. As far as being able to go without it again, i could, but take a little doing now. Good blog, folks i gotta run, have to work this weekend shoeing....seems everybody called the cell phone yesterday for today....LOL. MMMMMMMM what happen to appointments and planning ahead?
