You and me both, pal. And I have a funny story about that. My mom works as a Gue
st Services person at the University hospital in Wisconsin... biggest and best h
ospital in the state right? Anyhoo, she had a patient in her neurology clinic wh
ose name I will not reveal here, except to say that it was not Steve Jobs. Steve
Jobs is dead.
This guy had claimed to be the inventor of the smartphone. He had gone in becaus
e his back was hunched over from staring at his dang phone too much. Kinda remin
ded me of a circa-2002 Verizon commercial where people were going in for having
their hands permanently attached to their ears.
So yeah, I'm off Facebook, I'm off Twitter, or X or whatever it is now, I'm off
Instagram; you name it, I'm off it. And I don't think I've ever gone ON TikTok.
Thanks for that little dose of reality.
