I hate it when I see people get in their car, and before they put the key in the ignition, before they put on their seatbelt or adjust their mirrors or ANYTHING having to do with driving, out comes the damn cellphone.
Question:
Who the hell do you have to talk to that you can\'t wait at most an hour to talk to them? (granting an hour for driving time to get home of course)
It drives me up the wall when I\'m trying to merge onto I-25 and I have some pinhead in front of me on a cellphone going too damn slow. (seriously going like 50.) 2 things:
1.You\'re merging onto a MAJOR highway where everyone around you is going 75 or HIGHER. . .MOVE IT!
2.I can\'t imagine the crisis you\'re having that you must speak with someone on your cellphone RIGHT HERE AND NOW!
The ONLY one allowed to be on their phone while in a car is Jack Bauer because usually it has to do with national security or he\'s telling Chloe to move a satellite to find a nest of badguys AND he\'s speeding!
Lets not mention the fact that he has at least a gun if not, MANY guns with witch to kill/injure \"persons of interest\"
I think there should be cellphone jamming towers all aloing the highways so that even if you tried, you couldn\'t talk to ANYONE and you\'d be FORCED to focus on what you\'re there to do: DRIVE!
I know what you\'re going to say next: \"Well what about 911, what about emergencies, etc.\" Dammit people what did you do before the invention of the cellular phone? there\'s this other invention called a PAYPHONE, or hey, what about those handy police CALLBOXES that come up every few miles. I think that along with the jamming towers more callboxes could be installed at every mile interval so that you can continue to talk to whoever the hell you talk to now with minimal interruption.(except to pull over and get out of the damn car)
Which brings up another point; if people understood how important it was to drive in the first place we would have less accidents on I-25 on the hill before the 34 exit making me late to work! I liken driving to flying a plane. You\'re responsible for making sure your plane is in good working order. You\'re responsible for knowing what\'s going on around your plane, anything else is a distraction and could cause you to crash your plane. would you be talking on a damn cellphone while flying a plane? I don\'t think so! Along with the Highway, lets put jamming towers in Churches, Movie Theatres and restaurants. AAAAAH that\'s better, now I don\'t have to hear \"can\'t talk I\'m in a movie\" while I\'m trying to watch X-Men 3. (and/or Ghostrider) | |

|  | We're not that bright, even though in our own little world, we're geniuses. We like 80s hair bands and one-hit wonders, but among us we have respectable tastes, too. Metallica, Iron Maiden, U2. Pursuit of all things trivial is a lifestyle, not just a game. We like some sports, love other sports, and can find something to say about anything. We watch TV and movies and we've read a book or two, even a few classics (Yes, Classic Comics count!)
We call it insight, you call it what you will. | |

I am a recent college graduate of Minnesota State University Moorhead. After recieving my B.A. in English and Mass Communications this past August I moved down to Colorado.
I enjoy long walks on the beach, candlelight dinners, and heavy metal. My hobbies include reading and writing, music, movies, and getting drunk. Some of my favorite contemporary authors include Bret Easton Ellis, Chuck Palahniuk, and Kurt Vonnegut. My top movies are anything directed by Kubrick. I enjoy listening to anything that rocks.
Right now I am just trying to get to know Colorado and FoCo better. Mostly in order to find the best drink specials on each day that ends in Y. So if you know where I can get a cheap drunk on, let me know!
