September 22, 2012 iPhones Come to 901 Lilac Lane


When I made the leap to a Smart phone several years ago, the transition was not an easy one.  I liked the flip phone:  you opened it up, punched in a number and you were off!  How easy!  A trained monkey could get the hang of it and CB did.  (Just kidding.  He struggled a bit.)

About a month ago, my Droid Smart phone became possessed.  I tried several local exorcists, but to no avail.  Contacts appeared, then disappeared.  Apps were there, then gone.  Most of the time I was pissed off at it.  But, the devil you know is better than the devil you don't.

Finally, I had enough and went to Verizon for help.  They brought out their best voodoo goddess who could not find my contacts or my photos or my apps.  It was time for a new phone.

I discovered that the iPhone 4 would be free.  FREE! And I would pay for only the accessories I desired.  That sounded good to me and thought I'd upgrade CB while I was there. 

Three and a half hours later (yes, that's what I said:  THREE AND A HALF HOURS) I left with 2 iPhones.  But, since it took so damn long, I got CB's phone AND accessories for free.  I saved a butt load of money. 

I didn't even have to throw a fit or yell or scream or channel my dad or anything.  I just sat there, crippled, with my hands folded in my lap, waiting patiently. 

Was to.
