Maybe but I am in my comfy cozy desk chair, not driving my car.

I cant see to dial the damn phone without my readers ...never mind poke away at numbes and letters... there comes a time when you let the current technolgy pass you bye.. mine has come... hacking my way through the computer is as far as I care to take it...

and for the bone heads that do it( like the bimbo in the middle of main st. Reading last night taking two lanes driving 5mph in a 40).... well.. it's a publuc forum and what I have to say cant be printed here...
A good run is better than a bad stand!

So what do the deaf do, let the service dog drive while they are texting?

the old timers don't need to txt to screw up, they just stop off at the bar for a few then get behind the wheel
The biggest mistake we "OldTimers" have made, is letting you youngtwits live as long as we have.

think i'll start reading the paper as I drive. What's wrong with that? At least if your drunk driving you are looking at the road be it thru a stooper but texting you aren't even paying attention to the road. Pretty stupid IMO and yes I am so called old but it doesn't take old to figure out it is stupid to text and drive. Lawrence wins.

I tried texting while driving once, that was at a red light. Never again. I don't even answer my phone while driving.

I do like it just cause it lets you get to the point quickly and not seem rude, like you would on the phone if you were to just ask right away.
