I went to routine doctor appointment today. In the waiting room were 3 elderly people and two 20 something people. Both of the 20 somethings were plugged into their I-pods and sitting there in complete detachment from there surroundings, The 3 elderly people were engaged in the art of conversation. After about 30 minutes I knew all about the gentlemans world war 2 experiences and the years after when he was in Germany, Also some very amazing sea battle experiences he had. The two 20 somethings left the waiting room with the same blank expressions on their faces with their earphones still on. .The 3 elderly people were very interesting and rewarding to listen to. My point is thank god I don't have a fricken I-pod.
