“pray for our nation..It has to be more valuable than a cellphone”

The problem is that for many, the cellphone seems to have become the most important device in their lives.

All I see when I’m out and about are people looking at their cellphones (particularly younger females).

Doesn’t say a lot for our future.

Full disclosure:
I myself have a cellphone, but it’s ALWAYS turned off, and I generally don’t carry it on my person. It’s for taking along on a trip as an emergency contact device, or for when riding on the Harley (same reason, but still always off). The ONLY time it’s ever turned on is when I have to make an important call (a contact that is absolutely necessary). And that ain’t very often...

I keep a cheap tracfone that I carry when I’m away but few people have the number anyway.

Ditto that. Like a walkie talkie.

Gee, if I were to actually turn mine off, I'd probably have to charge it less often.
