twitter. Sassynic: Jumping jacks … have those ever been considered a real exercise? They seem so … fake to me. They’re the breast implants of exercises. Candorville: If a caveman saw all the glowing, blinking devices in my room, he’d flip out. I’d hate 2 see what he’d do if he saw my bills for all of them. I don’t understand, what’s this have to do with you deciding you no longer need counseling? I’m cured! All the voices in my head have been crowded out by all the voices in my phone.

I see you choose PG Sassynic post to retweet here!
You don't know how much I wanted to retweet her Carmex post instead, but I LIKE continuing to run in newspapers.
In 1984, I was studying abroad and I lived near a mental institution where they would regularly release those patients who were considered mostly harmless. Some of these guys could be found sitting on church steps or park benches holding animated discussions with people I could not see.
Today, I have a Blackberry and a Bluetooth telephone, and I sit in cafes holding animated discussions with people the other cafe patrons cannot see.
Now, I'm wondering if those guys really needed to be institutionalized ... or has the world become an asylum?
Because the world HAS become an asylum, Candorville rises to the top! Look at all the ideas a cartoonist can get just by reading the news!
that depends on how many actually separate people where answering you back on your blackberry... ;)
Sounds like New York State after they closed down the state-run mental institions. Except, you know, they kicked EVERYBODY out.
Like all seers, the tellers of the future were condemned to be called CRAZY!
