A Picture of a Tree


April 10 2002, 05:19 AM Walkabout

Yesterday, I was walking around the local large urban center, and I chanced to pass a person talking loudly into a cell phone. They were not just being loud because of the traffic noise and such, but also because they were carefully holding the phone an even quater inch from their face. It was a clamshell type phone, but the ear piece part was a very thin piece of plastic, and it trembled gently next to the ear as they spoke.

Today, I am again downgraded to toast and clear liquids. I have a box of melba toast rounds before me, which has (how did that happen?) promotional pictures of Nadia Comaneci scattered on the back panel. Also: Nadia Comaneci (how did that happen?) is now older.
