Well, we all know how dangerous texting can be while driving. Now the walking are in danger to. There have been report of people walking into walls, sign posts ans off the curb into on-coming traffic. All because they could not stop their fingers...Or thumbs.

Who'd'a thought those Mattel games I played as a kid would be for the training of today's corporate elite on how to use their thumbs to communicate? Maybe I'll just look for a busy intersection one day and film people bumping into lightposts, each other, fire hydrants, stumbling off curbs, all to get their message to someone else.

Is it funny in a sad sort of way, or sad in a funny sort of way?...

'Dressed up like a million dollar trooper,
trying hard to look like Gary Cooper...' (from the song Puttin' on the Ritz)

You'd have to get permission, but a film clip of all these nicely dressed folks trying to Blackberry while messing up their outfits could be... refreshing (with song mentioned playing in the background).

LOL! Sorry but I would probably laugh hysterically if I ever saw anyone do such a thing. Unless they were seriously hurt of course.

I still worry about people talking on their cell phones while driving or even just walking around.
