Electronic Manners

This is going to take several sessions of blog time. But to start, check out this link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jYLJSp9euj4 Seriously, (I had a big win on Seriously at the races the other day at Del Mar) what does lol stand for? I know of several interpretations. Lots of luck, lots of love and lots of laughs. Texting or text language was created to confuse adults. It was like a secret code for the young with nimble fingers and still is for that matter as the older generation struggles with punctuation, capitalization etc.

When is texting bad manners? IN THE CAR if you're driving. SERIOUSLY, people are dying because of this. Sounds stupid, but true. Texting is bad manners at any social event when you are with others. When you are at dinner or at a movie or in some other social realm of society, put your cell phone away!!!!! Enjoy the person you are with. It's a crazy concept but a really enjoyable one. Texting, like talking on your cell is to be done in private or a place that will not interfere with other people's enjoyment.

Manners for everyday situations.
