    Your thoughts?

    I personally get along JUST fine without commercial airlines, cell phones, ATM machines, overnight mail, debit cards, or an iPod.

    Id be fine without any of them

    Internet, computer, and tax prep software, ive only been using for couple yrs. No biggie, and even less for credit/debit cards and ATMs

    I dont have Ipod, never use jet or planes for that matter. I have never flown and would never.

    Cellphone would take some adjusting.

    And still use iron, no problem there. No overnight delivery would be no problem either.

    Yeah, I flew ONCE when I was 9, it was in a 2 seater plane that my daddy used at the airport. Would I go on a commercial jet liner today? No, money being one problem, the risk of crash being another, and especially today I would never set foot NEAR an airport with the Nazi groping guards and once you get on the plane you get charged for everything but breathing.

    Computers and the power grid. Our civilization would crash without them.

    my bro and i went to a concert last year, and not only did they NOT look into my purse, but they didnt pat us down.

    My bro told the security guy taking the tickets "Thank you for not violating my civil rights!" Just Dance
