Smart Phones & Dumb People

b"I'm sitting here in my big, comfortable, manly, black leather poppa chair in my living room, waiting for my Lady Wonder Wench to call and tell me she's ok. Since her accident a few years ago, I get a little worried about her when the damn phone doesn't ring when I expect her call. It almost never rings while I'm sitting here. It always waits for when I'm in the shower. \\n\\tThe first indoor shower was invented in 1850. The telephone wasn't invented till 1875. That means if you were lucky, you could have spent 25 years in the shower without the phone ringing once. \\n\\tI have the last dumb phone in my zip code. All it does is phone calls...usually while I'm taking a shower. I also have a phone so old that it actually plugs into the wall. Imagine that. No it doesn't have a crank although I've always thought that might be fun."
