Gadgets make us meek.
I truly believe in technology, and I depend on technology, with a little pinch of salt. Time will come that our batteries run out, phablet (phone & tablet) surfing down the toilet bowl...is that the end of the world. Rule number one, always visit your nearest public phone. Its like riding a bicycle, you'll get the hang of a wired receiver caressing your body...rule number two...always keep small change. In case of emergency, at least you could have some dignity in slotting a quarter down the rusty slot in phone booth...if all else fails..run to the nearest phone shop, whip out the credit card, and get the latest phone in the market. Well, a good excuse to get a new one I reckon..
