Hi hope you are both doing well. As for the phone my first cell phone was carried around in a bag and sometimes you could even talk on it. Things have changed over the years and now things i never thought I would ever be doing are required if I want to be part of my grandkids lives. Their parents encourage them to text to cut down on the voice min. Next reason for a smart phone is if you are hunting something in a strange area you used to be able to stop at the nearest phone booth and look in the yellow pages, have you looked for a phone booth latley and if you found one did it have a phone book. As for the camera have you ever saw something and said "darn I wish i had my camera. I always have my cell phone.
I totally agree with you about the fools driving and playing with their phones at the same time, and the people sitting playing games on their phone during a situation that calls for social interaction. I have carried a gun since a became apart of law enforcement back in the early seventies but I don't play with it or shoot people just because I can,in fact most people don't know I even have it. That is called intelligent behavior.
In closing all I have to say is "May God protect us from those who have things and aren't capable of intelligent use of them".
