Today it is official...it is illegal to use a cell phone in a car while you're driving unless you have a hands-free device to answer it with. I, for one, agree with this law whole-heartedly. There are way too many idiots out there who should not be allowed to drive, let alone use a phone while they do it.

My issue with those ear-pieces that people use with their phones is when people use them while they are walking around the city. You used to be able to know which people were mental patients because they would be the ones talking to themselves...NOW EVERYONE'S TALKING TO THEMSELVES!!!!

The cell phone issue is somewhat ridiculous. Firstly, even with the earpeice you still need to fumble around with the phone. All the law does is interfere with the clarity of reception and transmission.

A much bigger problem to address is women who put on makeup while driving and men who shave while driving. I'm also not to keen on people reading the newspaper while driving. (I see that all the time - even on highways).

I doubt that the new law will have any effect other than the one intended - to generate revenue for the state coffers.

I agree, your Majesty.

You know, here we are in the year 2001...you would have thought that by now we would have perfected the telepathic messaging system that would make cell phones obsolete by now. Oh well, just add it to the list with Flying Cars, Personal Rocket Packs and Spandex Jackets - one for everyone.

What a beautiful world it would be....
