Sure, why not have everyone jump on the band wagon. I got this in my email yesterday.
Okay, Aya, I am Christy. I used to work with Miles when he was at DirecTV. I just looked at his website. I think you should beat his Osama butt for some of the things he says about your cracker eating. (Don’t tell Miles, but my husband said the same thing about me with the Ginger snaps that DID NOT help.)
So basically Christy won’t admit that she too tortured her husband with Ginger snaps. See my website is like the lone guy on Oprah who answers a question and then gets bashed by the 299 women in the studio audience. See now you realize why men don’t go to tapings of Oprah.
Back to Miles bashing. I think he needs a cell phone. What if you have an emergency, like you need him to pick up a cantaloupe and a steak from the grocery store because you start to have cravings? He needs a cell phone. My parents are so not modern and they have cell phones. At the least, he should spring for the additional $10 it costs to add him to your plan and get the free phone. We will continue to harass him about this.
Exactly my point about NOT having a cell phone. Why would I want to stop off to grab a cantaloupe or a steak???
Number 1: groceries is not my chore.
Number 2: ever hear the Virginia slims ad? Their mantra is, “You’ve come a long way baby!” Thus, Aya can go shop for her own food cravings.
Number 3: Christy’s parents are ‘not so’ modern because they live in the sticks. North Carolina. Who do you know that lives in Carolina?? (MAK does not count for you DTV smart asses)
$10 bucks for a phone really is not a bad deal. Maybe for $10 bucks but not a penny more I might look into it. The thing is I am a pocket minimalist. Thus, I have one key, one wallet. Nothing else. Where am I going to put this phone? Do I have to leave it on? What’s the deal?? Just one more thing to take care of. Plus, if I leave the cell phone in the Celica then someone may break it to steal it…since the phone would be the only item of value in the car.

I can't believe you don't have a cell phone! Your in IT, being a techie, how can you not have a phone? That's like..being in IT and not drinking Coke, Coffee or Mountain Dew, or not reading the Fry's Ad every Friday.
sao-
being in IT caused me to NOT have a cell phone. i used to have a cell and pager. i was on call or could be reached 24/7. that sucks. without a phone you can say i can't be reached. it helps get you OFF being on call.
i also tell work that i do not have internet access. i am not dialing in to check jobs unless you will pay for my cable modem.
yeah, sorry the voodoo dr also has me off caffine, so no more coke and mountain dew for me unless it is a special occassion.
yup, i am no IT sheep. i march to my own beat of greatness!!
Miles,
Forget about the cell phone thing. You still drive the Celica? Are you kidding!?! You have a Boxster sitting in your garage and you are driving the Celica? In the name of God and all things sacred, get rid of the Celica and drive the Boxster!
tom-
hahahhaha. good catch. actually i just wrote a topic on this today. i wasn't planning on posting it until sunday.
Miles,
By the way, I don't have a cell phone either. I didn't think anyone else was cell free besides me. I just don't like being that accessible all the time. People know when they can reach me at home or at work. All that other time in between is my private time to spend with my family at the movies, restaurant, amusement park, beach, vacation, where ever. I agree with you - I don't want to be bothered.
WOO-HOO!!! A man with a pair of coconuts!! Finally someone else to put their neck out on the line.
Exactly my point and you are a father of THREE!! I agree 100%, 1/3 of your day is at work. the rest is at home or personal.
no need for cell phone's, pda's and other gadgets. it's called a brain and memory. (if you get old, use post-its!)
