Love the I Phone story. I'll definatley remember that one to use sometimes. I bet the audience loved it too. Most people are also annoyed by the ever present I Phone in the face routine. Kids riding bikes around the narrow streets here and texting just gets me crazy.
I was sitting on a bench in the shopping mall in Cape May. A mother and three young girls sit next to me. The middle one starts whining about how her phone was dead and the other two just kept their faces in theirs.
I was thinking, " Hey kids !! Look around you and appreciate your trip to Cape May !
This kid wouldn't stop whining so finally I asked her "What is so impoertant that you need to be on your phone this very minute ?" She shyly said "nothing" and stopped the complaining. Her mother looked at me and said "I hate those things !"
