I will take a vodka gimlet, please, it is my absolute favorite!!!

As to cell phones? Love it, use it, never leave home without it. Convenience that fits in the palm of my hand! I use mine while driving, while walking, it rings at work next to my 'real' phone. I have it on 24 hours a day.

If it makes MY life better, why not? I don't see the difference between yakking on my cell phone, or yakking to the person I am walking with? Really, you only get half the noise traffic. I am not rude on my phone anymore than I am rude in person. I don't talk on it if another person is talking to me, though I have asked my mom to 'stay in my pocket book' while I order at SB. I go through 2500 minutes a month, about, and if I am in my car, I am on my cell. Since I bill hourly during the work day, and get home after 8 pm most nights, to me, it is a huge convenience and way to stay connected. I don't use it in the gym (take it around with me when I am working out), I turn it off during court (peeves the judges), and it has helped me more often than it has hindered me. Want to call me? He he he...

Now, another gimlet, please, I am thirsty after all that yakking!!!
