I don't get it, when I'm on vacation, our cell phones are OFF or on silent.

all the people that have our numbers know to leave a message, and we will check and return when we take a break or something.

Only once, because I was waiting for some important information from work did I take a call. And then it was just to hear a "after action" type of quick report.

What I cannot understand is what the heck all these people are talking about! When we were first given the old brickbat cell phones for work, they admonished us to be frugal with the time on them. we managed to keep the conversations to a couple of minutes and pass the info we needed.

I also love seeing kids, riding bikes, or even better, riding a skateboard down a two lane highway in our small town talking on their cell phones. Not to mention the safety issue, what in the He** can be so important to a teen, or pre teen?

Think what would happen if Disney carried Metallica CDs, posters, t-shirts, etc. Your husband would need a truck to haul home the swag.

If Disney won't carry Metallica stuff maybe they'll go with some pirate babe posters. :D:
