Driving Over Certain Pedestrians Should Be Legal
If they’re not paying attention
Cell phones have evolved incredibly well for decades now. When I was a kid in the 90s, I remember seeing my mom & my sisters use a pay phone near this local store to make calls to people.
I don’t think I saw anyone with a cell phone at the time.
It wasn’t until my parents got me my first Sprint cell phone at the age of 15 that I became conscious of cell phones. I was ecstatic! That phone felt like the future. And it was — until one day I dropped it in a water area at SeaWorld San Antonio.
I grabbed that phone out of the water as if my life depended on it.
I was devastated that it happen and hoped that the phone was okay.
The phone looked okay at first and worked normally, but as the days passed by, it slowly started to come apart, until one day it came apart in a dramatic way. That’s when I knew it went to phone heaven.
RIP Sprint Phone.
Three years later, I would get another cell phone. This phone I remember very well because it had the internet on it. At the time, that blew my mind.
