I use my cell phone only for emergency cases, it's most times in the car.

The person is very honest. No lies in her vocabulary. We need more people like that.  When I was traveling, I was amazed at the number of people talking on their cell phone... in the public restroom! It had to be obvious to the person on the other end that they were in the toilet, with people going in and out and flushing and using the sinks and hand dryers and such. And they are just chatting away like its nothing.

Yeah, I'm sure you could have a lot of fun with telemarketers that way.

I consider using the toilet personal, and private. I don’t like the idea, I have friends who does it to me and as soon as I realize where they are the conversation is over.
Do we really need to be that connected? I feel I don’t need it. We do not even memorize name or numbers anymore, CC family the Brain cells are dying.

Our last area of real privacy ... please stay away ... I will not take any call while in the toilet or while having dinner or in deep conversation with my kids ... it just has to wait ... personally, I do not wish to be connected 24/7 ... I enjoy my quiet time and come to expect it ...
