Again yesterday I went to the park to exercise and try and
keep my heart from attacking me. Starting from the moment I drove into the
parking lot I could see that something strange was going on.
Instead of walking, running or being pulled along by their little while dogs as usual, all over the park my fellow health seekers were intently pecking
at their phones. It looked like they were in the last row of my church at
Sunday Mass...
- When I arrived, 1 of them was actually stopped and pecking in the middle of the parking lot as I drove in and she did not even look up as I swerved around her to get to my parking space.
- 5 were stopped in the middle of the trail pecking their phones.
- 1 was even pecking at 2 different phones she held in her left hand.
- 2 were about 5 feet from each other and were facing each other as they pecked away.
- Later, as I came back around the trail, I saw these 2 Text Talkers again. This time they were off the trail under a tree and they had increased their distance to about 15 feet. I guess they were testing out their Long Distance Communication Skills.
Regarding the comment I made in the second paragraph above
about my fellow parishioners pecking at their cell phones in the last row in my
church. I believe these peckers are in great danger of going to hell. They are actually
threatening to cut their monthly donation to the church if the pastor does not
make the last row larger. Personally I think the pastor should accede to their
demand. It just does not look right to see all these “worshipers” sitting on
each other’s laps.
Would I kid u?
