I held the thought for years that a# twitter was what a bird did. In the days after the snow starts to go away after the long winter, you know it is getting close to Spring because you can hear the birds #twittering in the trees.It turns out that I was wrong.Evidently a #twitter is a modern means of communication with abbreviated phrases describing the# twitterer's life, thoughts,news, activities, and on and on. What I don't understand is why they put that blasted # sign in front of some words. Weird!
Now, what's up with this thing called a "smart phone"? Is this phone smart as compared to a "dumb phone?
After all, everything in life has an opposite. Light and dark, cold and hot, up and down, rich and poor, smart phone and dumb phone. See how it works? I just got my first camera phone in December. I know, I know, I am way behind the times, but after all I am from Wallace originally.
Can you imagine what we would have thought when we were growing up is someone had said that someday everyone would be taking pictures with their phones? We would have called the loony-bin folks. Now, before all you think that I am way behind the times, I do know that a camera phone is not a smart phone. It is more like an average intelligent phone. My old cell phone which we still keep around for emergencies, only makes and receives calls,with uninteresting ring tones and songs. Maybe I can send it to some type of school to educate it and make it a smart phone.
This morning I was taking a small stroll when I head a bird #twittering, so I whipped out my average intelligent phone, and took a picture of it. Now, let's discuss this thing called an I-Pod. When I was living in Seattle, an I-Pod was a group of Orcas in Puget Sound. Now, they tell me you can listen to music on it. I don't think that I will ever #get#with#it.
