I'm the only one who's been coming to meetings lately.
The worst of times..they don't phase me,
even if I look and act really crazy.

    Unless you are in an area with zero reception is there any positives for not having a cell phone?

    There was a big scientific study about this.
    They factored every possible variable and concluded that the only possible positive to not having a cell phone is that you are 1000% more likely to be considered for a lead role if they reboot the Grumpy Old Men franchise.

    Make fun of me for this:
    A month ago my truck was stolen (I leave the keys in the ignition).
    A few hours later driving around in a work truck I came upon my truck being pillaged by some youth.
    As I slowly drove by with my testicles shrinking ( ten years ago, I would of pulled over and GOT IT ON.)
    I thought to myself, "THIS would be a good time to own a cellphone."

    I still have an analogue TV with a converter.
    I don't know how to text message and I only have a cell phone with me when traveling.
    I don't tweet (or bark, or whinny or bay but I do sometimes growl).
    I know how to drive a stick shift.
    I do not now nor ever will own or know how to use a Kindle or e-reader.
    I still buy CDs and LPs.
    I don't have an ipod nor do I listen to mp3's.
    I have never taken an Uber or stayed on an Airbnb.
    I use a cast iron frying pan.

    ...shall I go on?  :lol:

    my list includes:  not able to post in the right forum.
    A cell phone while travelling would be nice,
    I have been in a couple situations, where a cell phone would have saved some hassle :blush:

    I see!  Yes, part of the list- I get it!

    Yeah, I resisted cell phone technology for a long time but safety issues while on the road and the decline of pay phones led me to at least carry one while traveling. I was also one of the last of my friends and family to finally get a computer.  I think that was around 2003 or 2004.
