Here I am, sitting next to a couple of iTards. Do you know what iTards are? iTards are basically two people who sit across a table from each other and instead of conversing, they just pass an iPhone back and forth to each other. “Look at my picture!” “Wow, look at the new YouTube video that just got posted!” “Wow, check this website out!” This made me realize that…

Anyway, there was something interesting I was thinking about the other day. I was thinking about how all of us have three hands. We have two hands with which we are born, and a third hand called a cell phone that we purchase from T-Mobile, Sprint, AT&T or Verizon. Sometimes that third hand really ruins…

You have started a very intriguing text conversation in the middle of the day. There is, however, a problem with texting. People misuse it as a substitute for conversation. Guys will get a phone number from a woman, and what do they so often do wrong? Ah, you will need to listen to today’s podcast to find out.

On Saturday night, we did something that we rarely do anymore. We went to a bar. We went there to celebrate a friend’s birthday after we saw Ray LaMontagne play in concert. When we left the concert, we went to the bar. As we were in there, I kept noticing some things that are really funny.

In this corner, we have a BlackBerry weighing 6.2 ounces. In that corner, we’ve got an iPhone weighing 8.1 ounces. The iPhone has texting that you can do with your fingers that is a self-predicted type, but your fingers can’t…

I was in a Whole Foods-like market in Malibu the other day, and I was “BlackBerrying out” texting on my phone (which is something I tell you guys never to do!) I caught myself doing this (and you should too). You should never be on your hand held device in public oblivious to everything going on around you, because you will miss opportunities that present themselves.

Last night we went to see a The Graduate at the Hollywood Forever cemetery.
What a great night and a lot of fun. You guys need to check out in your town where they play movies at night outdoors.

The perfect summer date!!

I’m sitting here right now deleting 219 unopened emails from my Facebook page. As I’m sitting here doing that, the IM box keeps popping up with all sorts of “friends” (whom I don’t really know) wanting to chat with me.

Sunday is still by far my favorite day of the week. You know what’s so funny, though, is how many people beginning on Sunday afternoon experience what I call “Monday anxiety.” The minute Sunday afternoon rolls around, they start thinking about work.

What is up with people who use this as their voicemail message: “You have reached 310-555-1212. Please leave a message?” There’s nothing warm and nothing pleasant about that.
