Albert, if I go to your party, can I bring my phone?

You can spend the entire duration of the dinner with strapped to the side of your face for all I care :P

Honestly, if we can't keep someone's attention on the topic at hand, then there's no real reason to get together. I highly doubt that it's going to be an issue though. This is not to put down the 'no phone' idea, as I see a lot of value in severing the umbilical cord many of us have grown to our smart devices -- But I'm not going to ostracize or proselytize to someone who's developed an addiction (and it IS an addiction!). Here's a sobering thought for y'all; who still remembers phone numbers told to them without a pen and paper anymore?

Me. I never enter stuff into my phone. I'm actually very detached from my phone and can't say for sure where it is right at the moment. Then again, I'm weird with numbers. I remember every phone number I've ever had.

Me too
I only got a smart phone to check prices while I was in stores and now everyone wants to text me ....

I turn it off when I get home and peeps wonder where I am
