    That sounds like me, except I do have a cell phone. I am considering
    going back to the older style flip phone should my current (not so) smart
    phone ever stops working. I have had it over 5 years now, so it is more
    durable than I would have assumed when I got it.

    The flip phone is the only phone you can hangup with a decisive SLAP!

    To hangup with smartphone, a TAP is just *not* the same. LOL

    And, ofcourse you know that there are no smart phones, only stupid people.

    Yes, I remember that for sure. I really liked the one I had before but, at
    the time, I got convinced by the lady I was dating that I needed to be able
    to more-readily receive and send texts, etc. Nowadays, I do not find
    myself using those features too much! :o
