Give it a Rest!
You know, technology is cool and all, and I will forever be a gadget geek...but there is a place an time for everything.
Case(s) in Point: I was out riding back from lunch today, cruising up some back country road with our tech lead on the back of the bike. She'd been wanting to go out for awhile, and today was just about perfect, so we drove the 10 miles out to Leesburg for lunch, then back along twisty two-lane roads. Perfect. Well, coming back in to "civilization", we catch up to a guy in a Mercedes who is just all over the road. Ducking down, lifting his head back up, swerving left, swerving right...I backed off a bit. Turns out he's on his cell while trying to send a text page at the same time
Idiot.
Case #2 happened when I got back to work. Went to the bathroom. Standing there doing my business. And some guy in the stall starts talking on the phone to what I'm guessing was his girlfriend. Hello?! Can't you wait the 10 minutes and call her back?
