9. You may find this hard to believe

but I don't have a cell phone. My wife has one for safety reasons, but I'm retired and I don't want a leash. I have a CB radio in the truck in case I get in trouble on the highway; but have no desire for anyone to get a hold of me. I know it's different in the real world. When I was in the Navy I was tethered all the time with some sort of electronic device and for good reason, but now I'm just a bum and want to be free...
In my spare time (thats all I have) I may write a book about cell phone etiquette in public.
