Commucations?

3/21/2011

 
The new phones are still not setup correctly. They are the second generation of the blackberry phones we have had for the past two years. By second generation they must mean cheaper. They are just different enough in size that we cannot used our old cases. Blackberry has their own IM system so I tried to send Tina a message. That did not seem to work. I tried an IM on Yahoo but no go. Later, Tina had responded to my blackberry IM but it was set up not to make any noise for incoming messages so that was helpful. Smart. Then she tried Yahoo IM which works sometimes but very slow. So I called her office. Ok, I tried to call her office the call got dropped three times before I stopped trying.

My parents had one phone in the kitchen. It had a wire but we never lost that phone. We never dropped outside (Sarah & Stephanie). We never washed it in the washing machine (Katie. Never took it into a hot tub (Sarah). We never dropped into a cup holder half filled with liquid (Katie). That phone rang loud and clear. That Phone worked 99.89% of the time for 30 years without replacement or repair. My parents sometimes complained about the $10.00 a month bill and they were very careful about calling long distance. But every work day mom and dad communicated on that device without problems or phone stress.

I can’t wait for Tina to get home so we can communicate!
