My friend called me a Neo-Luddite

50. Your description of your activities sounds pretty much like me

No Twitter, no texting (also have it blocked), no iPod (but I do have an MP3 player kicking around here that I've lost somewhere). I did get on FB, but only to connect up with an exchange student that my ex and I had in our home about ten years ago. I sure don't check the fool thing more than twice a year. Once ebook readers get down to a really cheap price, and ebooks themselves sell for only a couple of dollars instead of the dead-tree type, I'll probably have one. Took a look at my lady's new Kobo the other day, it looked cool, but I didn't rush out any buy one.

However, I've got an associate degree in computer networking, and can fix just about any kind of computer, except an Apple. I hear they don't need fixing, anyway. I went for a smartphone a couple of years ago, and it's become my newspaper.

I sure don't think of myself as a Luddite, just someone who doesn't need every time-sucking gimmick that comes down the pike.
