I'm just sayin'. :..."Hello Hal." I'm just sayin'. :)<br /><br />My new phone has a feature called Siri - she talks to me when I leave voice commands, etc. I actually find myself saying "thank you" - as though she could hear me!<br /><br />The other day I asked her to set the timer (while walking Nonni & Bentley). The wind was blowing and I have no idea what she "thought" she heard but she replied (and I kid you not), "I'm not sure. I haven't really thought about it."<br /><br />Freaked me out. LOL. I turned the phone off.Debra Dickinsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00209071447120905907noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-708718912504052807.post-32783262848178007012012-05-25T22:37:51.483-04:002012-05-25T22:37:51.483-04:00Hello Hal.

As 'techy' as we are in most areas --including computers, iPods, iPads, laptops, etc...--we have still not switched to an iPhone (or any Smart Phone). <br /><br />Mine will text and make calls.. That's all that I use. I have an eye problem also--and can't see everything else that the phone does. SO-- I will keep this old one until it totally dies. Once it dies, then we will go through what you have gone through... I dread it.<br /><br />Hugs,<br />BetsyBetsy Banks Adamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16223591156634767330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-708718912504052807.post-25057288285456615862012-05-17T21:57:08.654-04:002012-05-17T21:57:08.654-04:00Do we even run our own lives anymore? lol sandieDo we even run our own lives anymore? lol sandieChatty Cronehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02232040517217024681noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-708718912504052807.post-49199221041050513892012-05-17T20:11:15.543-04:002012-05-17T20:11:15.543-04:00I don't have a clue how to work my cell phone ...I don't have a clue how to work my cell phone at all.

The scary thing is that I can figure this stuff out faster than Joe, which means we are REALLY in trouble. :P I don't use the hands-free all that much, but when we do, it is handy.
