I know it's too early to say I've been "vindicated"

78. I regard interacting with technology like having lunch in the food court at a mall.

The odds are that no one is listening to your conversation with your friends around the table, but those odds change if the people at adjoining tables hear words or phrases like "murder my wife," or "incredibly malformed penis" or "put a bomb under his Escalade" or other "WTF did that so-and-so say?" type phrase.

I only recently got an Android phone, and the only reason I got one is because my old, text-n-talk-n-take-a-pic phone finally died after a half decade or more of reliable service. I don't have all my devices "interconnected," and I won't be reading my primary email on that thing, because if I lose it I don't want to have to worry about giving someone yet another way to hack into my (not very important) shit! It is a cool thing to use while waiting around for a family member at the doctor, or dentist or whatever (I do a lot of family taxi driving lately) because I can read the paper or watch a YOUTUBE on it. It's like a bit of entertainment in your pocket, and that's certainly fun!
