-pops- Posted January 23, 2011 Report Share Posted January 23, 2011 On the subject of multitasking, it is reputed that President Bush (don't know which one, possibly it was both) couldn't walk and chew gum at the same time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ɹəuəllıʍ ʇɐb Posted January 24, 2011 Report Share Posted January 24, 2011 We definitely need more ponds here in Japan! It seems that no female is able to walk in this country without the keitai (mobile phone) in front of their face. Other (male) pedestrians are constantly navigating around texting females; it's an epidemic... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Largely as he appeared to have two left feet and the ability to trip over deceptively smooth and unobstructed surfaces. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-pops- Posted January 25, 2011 Report Share Posted January 25, 2011 I wonder what it's going to be like in a few years?All verbal communication will be lost completely and replaced by "texting", emails and whatever other technology comes up (thought transference through some Microsoft or Apple gizmo?).
