I'll make sure the beer is cold and the wine has time to breath


Are you sure you don't have to put a mask on the wine when you let it breathe?

I can sort of picture a teenager of today staring intently at a rotary dial phone for a couple of hours, then looking over and asking, "What is it?"


True enough, it would be a puzzling toy, which end to speak from? How about when we were attached to a wall by a short cord. The thing is we used to be attached to a phone only when speaking on it, now we're attached to a damn phone 24/7, I h**e it. We've all been indoctrinated into it being another appendage. I've watched people answer their phone like they're in a millisecond race. LOL

I always like when people talk on their phone while holding it like a slice of pizza. πŸ•

The worst are those who don't seem to understand that the phone carries their voice to the person they're talking to without them having to shout the message to be heard across town or wherever the other party happens to be, so everybody for thirty yards around has to listen to the problems they're having with their nephew Gomer and how Lucille can't get the stain out of her ski jacket.

Very true, guess we really are just one big family, lol. My favorite is when you see people eating out at a restaurant and someone takes a call at the table, geeez. Is there such a thing as phone etiquette? Guess not.

It's even worse when you see a young couple in an expensive restaurant and you can tell it's way beyond what the young man can afford, but he's into taking his girlfriend out for a romantic dinner... And she's texting and having a great time with her smart phone while he sits there looking lonely.

The funniest thing I have seen was my daughter sitting on one end of the couch and her boyfriend sitting on the other (as a dad, that's a good thing), they each had their phones out and texting. They were having a fight and doing it through their phones. At least it was quiet in the House.

Sometimes when I see young couples walking along, both texting, I wonder if their texting conversations are with each other. You just confirmed it.
