Willy's Cell Phone

Willy was out at the local "Hillbilly Possum Grit Grill and Cantina" today and was just relaxing and enjoying a lunch outing with the little wife and daughter. The Cantina was especially crowded today and its a little small to start with to handle the crowds that like to congregate there on Saturdays.

Well, it was then and there that Willy decided he needed to go home and practice using all of the things that were on his cell phone. Cause you see Willy had already come to the conclusion that this new fangled toy was more than just something to talk on. Cause you see, Willy's skills with his cell phone consist of dialing a number and talking or opening it up and talking when it rings.

Willy done set there today and watched about 18 people doing other things than talking on their cell phone. It appears that everyone under 30 had a cell phone and was typing to each other on it. Well during the meal Willy's daughter even sent a text message to her tournament fishing husband to ask how many fish he had caught. Willy even thinks that the two college kids sitting in the same booth across from the little family was talking to each other by texting on their cell phones - maybe they were undercover agents and couldn't say anything out loud that others might here.

Well, across the way Willy done seen another man pull out his cell phone and start to calculate his ticket that he believed that Juanita (beautiful waitress at the Cantina) had calculated wrong. Willy believes that if the guy thought it was wrong he would probably use the email on his phone to contact his accountant to check it out for him.

Well, Willy done sees another young girl waiting on a table and she had ear plugs in her ear and had a little wiggle to her step. Willy done thinks she might have one of them IPOD things with all of the music. But oh no! Her music machine done started ringing and she began to talk through this "blue tooth" thing stuck in her ear. (And Willy thought a "Blue Tooth was something from a blue monster or something). What else can you do on these cell phones that Willy has to learn.

Well, next thing you know, a middle aged man that knows that Willy is such a celebrity at the Cantina that he steps up and asks if he can take his picture with Willy. Well, Willy done takes off his sun glasses and straightens up his hat a little to pose for the picture. Then the man hands his cell phone to his wife. Willy done says - I aint got time for you to call the photographer, Willy has to get home and take his nap you know. Well, the man informs Willy that he is using the Cell phone to take the picture. When he gets through, he is going to send the picture in an email to the local "Ozark Hillbilly Gazette" cause he wants his picture to show up this week in the society page for everyone to see.

Well, this is getting tough. Willy done knows how to talk on the phone but now Willy has to learn to email, Text, send pictures and nobody knows what else he may have to figure out.

Then along comes the lady that says she is big into "YouTube" Well, Willy done heard about that internet site. He done watched some "Arkansas Razorback" footage on that site. One even had Houston Nutt using his cell phone to text message someone. (Willy done thinks thats gret that a head football coach done learned how to really use that text message thing for a good cause, especially right before kickoff of a bowl game.) Well, the little lady thought that Willy could sing good and she wanted to video this and put it on YouTube. Wonder if any one will look at it over there.

Willy done think this cell phone thing is done to much overwhelming. Willy believes that it has gone to far when he sees what he saw about a week ago at a concert. Willy was done sitting behind this young man and girl when they began to kiss with great passion. The little lady had one arm around the boy, both hands around his neck, the cell phone perched behind his head in one hand. With her thumb on her right hand she preceded to type at least 40 words a minute to her girlfriend about how good the concert was.

Willy enjoyed the concert too. Willy believes he is going to stick to talking on the cell phone for now. Hello! How do you work this thing!


CAN YOU HEAR ME NOW!

10-4 Willy

I listened to your video Willy -- it was bad. But nowadays bad is good so I guess I meant to say it was aweful -- but I guess if you break down aweful, what I really mean is that I was full of awe -- shock and awe that is...
