I've always been tech savvy, and I've had a computer with internet access since 1993, but I've always said that I could walk away from my computer at any time and be just fine. That was then...

 

Now, I'm never more than inches away from a computer what with a smartphone in my pocket all day long. When I plan a hotel stay, the room has to have Wi-Fi. When I go to the WHCC show at South Mountain fairgrounds where AT&T coverage is poor, I take a throwaway Verizon smartphone with me. 

 

So Jay, I feel your pain. It's  good to have you back.

WHX??

I hear ya Jay...I don't have internet at home, too $$ and I'm too cheap...rather save the $$ for horse nonsense!! 'Sides I have plenty of it here at the shop... almost makes me want to come to work...NOT.  Poor reception at home on the Samsung ...damn steel roofs... so if I need my RS fix at home I bust out the tablet or the wife's ancient laptop (she chuckles when I fire it up)  set the phone outside and hotspot it! Just not the same tho! :lol:

Reminds me of when my Grandpa got his first iPhone from the company he worked for and discovered texting. He asked me a question and I replied back "IDK" took him a bit he finally replies "What does IDK mean?" So I spelled it out for him "I Don't Know" his next reply was priceless he said "What do you mean you don't know you're the one that sent it to me!"

I don't text but my wife and the two children do.The only text I have ever sent was to my son a year ago.    NO   That's universal even if you don't text

And that is the reason that we discourage the use of "text talk" here on RedSquare.
