Just a thought...

Call me old fashioned, but my phone dials numbers. And that's it. I have no apps for that. Facebook is on my computer, not on my phone. My phone must be dumb, cause it sure isn't a smart phone. But I got to thinking...just how far are we from needing virus and spyware protection on our cell phones? Obviously identity theft and hacking is already an issue.

I only use my phone for conversations. Forget the internet on the phone.

As soon as I can, I'm going back to a flip phone.

I hate my touch screen phone. I'm going back to a flip phone soon too.

I LOVE my touch screen/Smart Phone. I've never gotten a virus

Re: Just a thought...

I agree with ya'll. I use my phone only to talk or maybe send a text once in a while.
That's all I need it to do.

Re: Just a thought...

I use a Blackberry for work so I can get emails along with phone calls. They block us from having apps although I can surf the web. The BB screen is so small though it is not easy.

About six months ago when my upgraded from a regular cell phone to an iphone 4s I got an HTC smartphone. I rarely use it since I have my work phone with me constantly but keep it in the car to stream radio stations from I heart radio. I can listen to my local station no matter where I am traveling to. Last Sunday on the way back from an out of state trip I was able to listen to the Tennessee Titans football game streaming through my smart phone.

I also like being able to check my personal emails easily. More than my smart phone I use my Kindle Fire. Almost every restaurant has free wifi now so I can read newspapers, check emails, and read a book while at lunch if I want.

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.

"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.

"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."

Quote from Ethel Goss (widow of 1st UPC Gen Supt. Howard Goss) book "The Winds of God"

Hopefully when you're dining alone and not with friends or family!
That is so one of my pet peeves!
For anyone to sit and stare at a phone screen while in the company
of others while dining!
