| Re: Smarter than a fifth-grader?
This doesn't surprise me.
We are all losing our ability to memorize things with our cell phones storing numbers, our PDA's keeping tabs on our schedules, google for all those small facts, spell check, programmable coffee makers and remotes, on screen menus, devices that save our "favorites" like my drivers seat that adjusts to me, that all important popcorn button on the microwave, my automatic grocery list on the fridge, e-mail receipts and reminders for everything, caller ID and redial, 411, my GPS telling me how to get to my kids school and anywhere else I tell it to go, my credit card statements that give details and categorize my spending, hell, I don't even have to remember how I like my coffee at D&D....they just make it for me! Now, if I could just remember where I put my keys and iPod.
What did I forget?
Oh... how about this one... phone calls from the school district asking me if my child has shown me his or her report cards yet? |
