Do not own a cell phone. They are not necessary.

I will never own one. I find them invasive and irritating. You couldn’t pay me to own one.

I’m with you. During the year I count the number of times I say to myself, “Gee, I really, really wish I had a cell phone right now.” I have said that if I get more than five times like that I will consider a cell phone. Hasn’t happened yet.

I get a kick out of my friends who are addicted to their phones. Checking the stock market every 10 minutes, etc.

I have a cheap one with minimum monthly cost, no contract and no minutes included. It's only for emergencies or to bring on a road trip. It's never on.

What's irritating is all of the user fees and taxes on a phone I don't use. Don't they subsidize free phones for those who get 250 minutes a month included for free?

YES,YES,YES!

That said , they are far better than my oatmeal box and string.
