It sure is nice to know others feel much the same as I do about this constant need for keeping in touch. We do have a GPS, a cell phone and a Sansa mP3 as well as my wife's iPod. I have no clue where the cell phone is nor the mP3. The GPS is in the box it came in. My wife - plays games on the iPod. She also has a Facebook account that she visits --- 2-3X a year. I wont do the Facebook thing. Two years ago I was contacted to go to my JUNIOR high reunion. What!!! I haven't seen most of those people in over 40 years ...... and most I couldn't stand then. They also wanted my Facebook access so "we could stay in touch". Yeah - sure. A couple even sent me emails trying to get me to go to their shindig.

Several of my grandchildren showed up with their latest electronic gadgets - and of course I had to at least appear interested.

It's hell almost being a semi-Luddite
