When I was working for a Civil Defence organisation my husband bought me
an emergency cellphone charger that runs from an AA battery. It doesn't
provide a full charge, but it's enough to allow a person to make a
couple of short calls.

Bob, I'm sure you know that it's amazing that anyone would even ask
this question.

Are you trolling, or angling to make a point?

Suppose you'd been invited to dinner at the house of some friends. Would it
be rude to bring along your iPad and spend most of the dinner using it to
read and post on social-networking sites?

My personal gut feeling is that it's appallingly rude, but maybe I'm just
old-fashioned. What say the rest of you?

If a tree falls on the phone line the cell phone still works.

And a burglar can't disable a cell phone by cutting the wire.

You're are showing your age. Young kids, teens and adults show a
marked preference for texting over emails or phone calls. That is just
the way it is.

I guess you could write a letter on some nice stationary.

She would have had a point if she had a need for the phone. It was in
the early 90s, so it was dialup, but I heard him ask if she needed to
make a call or was expecting a call. In her selfish world it did not
matter. It was her line and he was not to use it.

She was one physically ugly woman with a miserable personality. As I
wrote in another post, she fed her family Kraft Dinner and then went to
the restaurant next door for dinner for herself. She was a piece of work.

You'd not be confronted with that situation.


Anyone who invites you will be thrilled that you're occupied by
anything that prevents them from having be inundated by your incessant
idiotic blathering... they'd probably give you an Etch A Sketch to
keep you occupied.

Rude. Totally. I'd just quit feeding the offender and see if they even
noticed.

I have one because if the car goes tits up it saves me having to go
wandering down the road in a snowstrom at 2AM searching for someone who
will wake up and call a tow for me.
