I'm pretty sure I could live without a phone, but have to have my cell phone to text, email, etc, I could just do without the vocal aspect of it, lolAprilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02026539637409766437noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35940445.post-28230993801719755462010-02-08T20:28:34.801-06:002010-02-08T20:28:34.801-06:00I'm definately an email kinda guy.

Frankly, I get more of a response from them if I text rather than when I call, since they don't usually answer my phone calls.

But, it's very much alive and kicking for business uses and adults that don't have the phone glued to the ear, in general...grinning.<br /><br />BrennaBrennaLyonshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17399508130752035374noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35940445.post-63573269051926653912010-02-08T10:59:45.472-06:002010-02-08T10:59:45.472-06:00My husband claims email is dead, but the hundreds ...My husband claims email is dead, but the hundreds I get a day says otherwise!<br /><br />I hate using my cell phone.

I have the cell phone for...I'm with you guys. <br /><br />I have the cell phone for very specific reasons. First and foremost is emergencies. I have three kids, so I want to be in touch with them or their schools, whether I am at home and the phone is down, out of the house, or teaching at another school. Other reasons would be making a call when the house phone isn't charged well, getting a phone number for a store when we're out looking for something, my husband reaching me at work, and so forth.<br /><br />I don't use my phone when I'm driving. Anyone trying to reach me knows that either one of my kids will answer and play go-between or I'll let it go to voice mail and answer at my convenience, when I stop somewhere.<br /><br />At the same time, I use e-mail all day. I tend to write only one or two physical letters (save business-related ones like query letters) every year. But I write not less than 100 e-mail a day and usually receive thousands of them. I open and read at least 500 e-mail in a day. Can it be misunderstood? Sure, but it also keeps me in touch with people and gets the job done.<br /><br />BrennaBrennaLyonshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17399508130752035374noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35940445.post-38961405020688576362010-02-08T08:18:32.752-06:002010-02-08T08:18:32.752-06:00I rarely use my cell phone.

It was cold, I was on the highway, and the next exit was too far away to walk. Didn't have a cell phone, but some man and his two kids picked me up. <br /><br />I have to tell you, though, I got into their car hoping I wasn't going to be tomorrow morning's news story.<br /><br />I bought a cell phone the next day.<br /><br />I communicate all day long via email. Sometimes your meaning can be misunderstood, but I don't have time to write letters anymore and I don't really like talking on the phone.<br /><br />Cheryl<br /><br /><a href="http://childrensandteensbookconnection.wordpress.com/" rel="nofollow">TC&TBC</a>Cherylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03470069911115912344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35940445.post-73223755328397241562010-02-08T07:39:37.832-06:002010-02-08T07:39:37.832-06:00e-mail.
