I PHONES can be dangerous. In this case Kevin (eldest son) is totally unaware
that the wild grape vines he is about to harvest contains a dangerous
predator ready to scare the bejabbers out of him. I phones are dangerous
because they distract. In the long term…i.e. a thousand years of iPhone
there may be a mutation in our necks whereby we can only look down.
Think about that. What will we fail to see? Will that mutation spell the
end of human kind because we cannot see what is coming at us? Will we
fail to see the sunrise….the sunset…the sky? Silly, I know that.
QUOTE OF THE WEEK
Last week our grandson Jack took the first step in basic training
for the Canadian army. Adulthood. Leaving the nest. We do not know where that will lead him and
miss him dearly. It seems he feels the same because he wrote to
his sister Molly a very endearing letter which included this sentence.
“Molly, will you show Norman my picture often, I don’t want him to forget me.”
Who is Norman? Norman is their family dog. Will Norman remember Jack
when he sees Jack’s picture on an iPhone? Not sure of the answer.
Marjorie assures me the Norman will remember Jack forever. “There is no way
to get rid of a scent.”
