What Are They Talking About?

I have been continually amazed at the growing number of cell phone users. If I am sitting in a coffee shop and looking outside, I rarely see a person who is walking without talking on their cell phone. I would like to give you a ratio here about how many people are using cell phones, but I am not good with numbers and don’t want to ruin my entry with over-exaggerated terms.

Everytime I see a person walking and talking I wonder a few things:

1. Are people purposely talking on their phone while they are in public so others can see how popular they are? If so, that is a lot of work! Leading to the next question…

2. What are they talking about?! I definitely talk while I am walking, but never more than quick conversations. These people are talking on their phones every day and they are always walking somwhere - so are they making up things to talk about or do they just have that much more to say than I do?

3. Has the cell phone replaced the friend? People are either with people and without their cell phones or they are alone and talking on a cell phone.

In most cases, I am usually wondering what they have to talk about all the time.
