And people who think of me as a "tech savvy " guy don't understand why I
don't have a cell phone. I am a man who like to "slow down (and
sometimes stop) and smell the roses ."

I think that many advertisements for cell phones attempt to suggest
that anyone who is not filling every waking second of every day with
activity is not experiencing the best that life has to offer. Those
same ads also seem to reinforce to those who are already stretched to
the limit that they can use the advertised cell phone to enable them
to cram even more work or other activity into whatever precious and
wasted few seconds that are not booked up already. No time for
relaxation in this world! Gotta go, go, go, go, go.
A few tidbits form a recent Sprint advertising flyer I got in the mail:
"Running your life requires some running around. From business
meetings to family meetings to meeting somewhere in the middle..."
No time for kicking back in that one.
"Never a dull moment."
No rest here.
"Work, play and all the spaces in between demand service..."
Can't heave a sigh of relief and sneak a nap in the hammock anymore.
"The days of waiting for technology to catch up with your life are long gone."
No need to slow down and smell the roses now.
