When we were in Philly for my nephew’s wedding, a woman walked across the street while talking on her cell phone and was struck and killed by a Duck (amphibious vehicle).

So true, Danny. I am guilty right now of being on my phone too much. Especially in the presence of people I love. Need to just put it down and take a break. Life goes by and I want to be part of it, not talking or searching on my phone!!!

And….well, you get the picture…
