It became clear to me the other day. I was walking toward my car and saw a poor deformed lady making her way across the parking lot. My heart began to go out to her as she struggled with her deformity. Then I realized she was talking on her cell phone, she was not a Quasimodo clone.
You have seen these people. They have their shoulder hunched up and their head bent over with the phone sandwiched between as they talk with abandon.
I think it is part of a plot by the chiropractors of the world. The position must do something to the alignment of the spine and cause a plethora of problems. There are only two solutions: See the chiropractor or dump the cell phone. I prefer the second but I don’t see it happening.
Maybe we need a federal program to help people stand up straight. Perhaps we could have a law making it illegal to take your hand off your cell phone when it is connected with a call. Perhaps we could require cell phone users to wear a large helmet with a special adapter to hold the phone against their ear. All of these steps would, of course, be for our own good.

Maybe you should get your chiropractic license and profit from all the foolishness!
ReplyDeleteI must confess, that solution never occurred to me.
