WASHINGTON (AP) — Barack Obama's cherished Blackberry slipped through his fingers Friday — but it was only a butterfingers moment.

Obama, who has been reluctant to relinquish the device when he becomes president, dropped his Blackberry and its hard plastic case onto an airport tarmac as he emerged from his fortified vehicle.

A Secret Service agent hustled to pick it up.

How right you are!

I noticed that in my neighborhood the other evening . There was a man walking a beautiful golden retriever, and instead of talking to his dog, he was on the phone. The streets were icy, and he could have tripped and killed himself and the dog. These Yuppies walk around in total oblivion.

I am seen couples dining in a restaurant, not a McDonalds either, but a real non chain restaurant. Each one was on the phone at the same time they were having dinner with each other.

Pathetic.

Obama’s wife, “Aunt Esther”, should smack him up the side of the head!

Great.He probably plans on storing top secret information and the nuclear missle launch codes on it and will end up losing it when he visits his buddy Adminejad in Iran.Of course he’d only be upset about losing the Blackberry and not the confidental imformation he illegally has downloaded on it.

Secret Service officials are among those urging Obama to give up his Blackberry habit, because it causes security worries

With a blackberry on his person, his exact location can be pinpointed at any given time...ergo, a sitting target. He should NOT, therefore, be allowed to keep it - ummm, on second thought.

But seriously, he's panicked about being surrounded by the bubble of people - cabinet - and unable to reach or be reached directly by his peebs.

One could wonder why? Is the main puppet-master, who correagates his every move, gives him his words, not one of the inside bubble?

Will he be rendered speechless without his 'feed'?

Is he really off of altering substances or does he need 'contact'?

He is going to the POTUS. His wants are now secondary the the security of the POTUS. He should not be allowed to use this breach of secruity.

LOL
that is funny as I have seen the same thing and yes it is these yuppies.

We got gift certificates for the cheesecake factory(expensive place I found) anyway we went to a restaurant and a couple were both on their phones completely ignoring each other.

It was so pathetic I had to laugh, my wife asked what I was laughing at and I pointed it out.

we now find it amusing when you see two or three people together on their phones doing whatever while totally ignoring their friends , spouse around them.,

Don't know; I don't read the MSM much (except as I see it here or in the WSJ). But I found the comment about "fortified vehicle" interesting...

President Bush gave up personal emails for the last eight years so the "loyal opposition" (ack) would not use it against him and open himself up to the enemy .

Obama better wise up fast, he's going to be POTUS and the security of the nation is in his greasy hands. he better take giving up his blackberry seriously before it is hacked and used as a blackmailing weapon

I noticed that also and thought it spoke volumes about him as a person. He didn’t even act as though he was going to pick it up - he just stood there waiting for the Secret Service agent to get it for him. Say what you will about George Bush, but he would have bent over and picked it up himself.

The SS needs to do a much better job of protecting that Blackberry. Without it, booty calls & white powder will be virtually impossible for BaRock.

I have a co-worker that got upset cause I stopped going to lunch with him.

All he did for the 30 minutes was text message someone on his phone EVERY SINGLE DAY. He would barely acknowledge me.

I told him that it was boring just watching him text every freaking day. It was more fun eating BY MYSELF.

I loved Cheesecake Factory when I went there for lunch in Baltimore. Unfortunately,or fortunately, here in NYC we don’t have many chain restaurants.

Most restaurants are still Mom and Pop operations. Hundreds of Greek Coffee Shops/Luncheonettes, Chinese restaurants, and small restaurants owned and run by individual proprietors/chefs.

Do you not like the fmaily owned restaurants?

my view
I hated cheesecake and other big chain restaurants. much prefer the family owned restaurants.
Except cracker barrel which I like, decent price, and decent homestyle food

I found in the cheesecake a certain amount of people who were elitist yuppies.
IMHO the food was terrible, the food was so out of price, way over priced actually , the whole atmosphere just didn’t sit well with me.
many of the people wearing designer clothes and it seemed they wanted to make a statement of look at me etc.

Of course I have only ever been to one so maybe others are much different like the one you went to and doesn’t have a yuppie clientele but for me I’ll take the family owned places anytime.

I got the chicken which was very thin and swimming in some horrible sauce, I could taste that sauce for hours but couldn’t taste the chicken of which I had ordered.
I think I’ll never go to another one again.
Cracker barrel 7$ and much nicer food along with the surroundings of the place

Have you ever been to Boston?
If you have or might then the north end is the best place I have ever eaten, just restaurant after restaurant of family owned Italians
