Dangerous Text

"As if you needed more evidence that texting is more dangerous than swine flu, a 15-year-old girl from Staten Island walked into an open manhole while texting. She's fine, don't worry, although she did lose a shoe in the sewer."

What's even more amazing is the beaucoup $$ telcos make on texting. One wag calculated the astounding figure of $1800/megabyte on tech that rides on top of voice as a freebie. Not bad money as long as you are not a parent or an addict doing the deed while driving. (Something I witnessed during rush hour on the Merritt parkway in CT!) :)

Caveat Emptor

As an aside, why is the sewer cover make in India??!!
