Well before I actually begin the content for this blog, you should know that I am writing this and posting it online all in real time from 32,000 feet. Flying on Delta to San Diego with onboard Wifi. Amazing!!!
So we get to the gate today, and it was a strange sight. One that I had not ever really seen or perhaps noticed before. Perhaps because I have been one of the culprits. Looking down the aisles of seats, of course all I could see was waiting passengers. But what I saw was perplexing. I only saw tops of heads . . . and thumbs flying. That's right!!!! All thumbs. At least 15 of the 25 people seated there were whizzing on their Blackberry's or iPhones. Tops of heads and thumbs a blazing!
I believe that evolution is already kicking in, because I looked at my own thumbs and I actually believe they are getting longer but thinner. Longer to be able to handle the full size of the keyboard. Thinner to be able to hit just the letters I want.
No one was talking . . . just thumbs a banging. No one noticed anyone else around them . . . just thumbs a whirring. No one paid attention to anything else . . . just thumbs a blurring.
I'm not really sure what all this means. I'm not going to editorialzie today. Just observing.
Maybe you'd like to comment and we'll get the conversation started!
BTW--we land in 2.5 hours!
See ya around!
