Cellphone kid

A couple of weeks ago when I came out of my house to leave for work I saw a kid riding his bike to school. I thought how cute, until I saw that he was on a cellphone. I saw him again today, and again he was on a cellphone. I have to wonder who can a kid that young talk to on the phone at 7am and also shouldn't he be paying attention to where he's riding? I know there are good reasons for a kid to have a cellphone, but I find myself wondering how kids will relate to each other when they are constantly 'plugged in' to everything. Yes, I see the irony as I type this on my blog...

I definitely have turned the corner away from young and have had more than one 'back in my day' moments. When and how does it happen? Don't get me wrong, I love where I am in my life I just wonder when I stopped being young....

One more soapbox moment, I was watching an episode of Glee last night and they said they were going to sing a classic rock song. I was ready for something from the '70s, but then they started to sing "One" by U2. When did U2 become classic rock? I had to look it up, it came out in 1991....I guess 'classic' is anything that came out before they were born. I'll be listening to all 'classic' rock before too long...
