They Can Put a Man on the Moon...

But they can't make him phone home.

Me: Where have you been?

Al: At my Mom's.

Me: Why didn't you call?
(Chime sound: be-boo-be-baa)

Al: I Oooh! (squinting at tiny screen) My "Sudoku of the Day" just arrived. Did you say something?



Funny. Al has the new Moto Q that can aim the Hubble telescope from his palm, but it lacks the "call wife" feature. Oh, wait, that was an additional $9.99 per month. Never mind.

I am honestly trying to figure out what in the WORLD is the fascination with that Sudoku craze. It is beyond me. I do enjoy math, I love numbers, but Sudoku????? Beats me.... And on a tiny screen, too. Why is it that Scrabble never caught on like that? I would LOVE to hook up with ANYONE for a great game of Scrabble. No takers.... Sorry about the husband/wife thing.... it pains me whenever I see that happen... Men are just dogs without furry coats, but my Labrador would still phone home...
