Add me to the list, too! Voice messages are so irritating and impersonal.

Society is rapidly devolving into anarchy. Just watch the news.

Bingo! 100% right you are, Popover. Sometimes it scares me just to think where society is going, and how rapidly.

I hate seeing the condom and the Viagra, do you know how hard it is to explain that to a 11 yr old boy. At his age he hasn't even discovered these things about his body and you are trying to explain that one day they might not work right and you have to take a pill. Not all things need to be in commercials, that's what the doctors offices are for.

One of my biggest pet-peeves! Not impressed when you can't understand someone!

1). A birthday telephone call from grandchildren instead of a #£#¥ text ! I want to hear their voices!
2). A tv that I would plug in and turn on. I don't need a "cable box" and all those connections, but DH does.

If I could chose anything from yesterdays, I would chose not to have government in our private lives.
