~A picture taken off a computer screen of a picture taken with my iPhone (before I figured out how to get pictures out of iPhoto without taking pictures of them with my telecamera) |
I've observed that if you take a picture with a glass of beer in the foreground and a pretty woman in the background, you end up with a nice picture. No doubt we've gone a little nuts of late taking pictures with our phones, but it is awfully handy. Actually, what we have are cameras that also work sometimes as a telephone (in the case of the iPhone), but anyway you look at it we're all taking a lot more pictures today than our parents did when they were our age and it's of course because of the tele-camera most of us carry around all day. I think there's a pretty good chance that if a young person lives long enough most of them will depart this world because of some malady caused by holding their telecamera up to their head most of the day, except when they're driving of course--I mean, especially when they're driving. That's apparently the preferred time to text, read emails and post on Facebook. It's rare today to see someone driving a car who isn't also glancing or even staring down at their telecamera. When you do catch someone focussing on driving their car, it's usually some older person who just never quite caught on to the concept of driving and smart-phoning. It doesn't mean their not smart, it probably just means their wiser than those who do. And as the saying goes, you don't get real old being a fool.
PS. This was a test of the non-emergency rambling man website. If you like reading actual blog post void of occasional rambling and blundering, stay tuned--there's more stuff to come that doesn't involve so much rambling. You have to admit though...that's a very nice picture!
