55 - Implants?


“Did you read about the Danish study that concluded radiation from cell phones doesn’t increase the risk of cancer or tumors in the brain?”

“Yah, I suppose now cell phone manufacturers will try to figure out a way to implant phones directly into our heads.”

“Well, that’s one way to do away with butt dialing.”

I was still laughing from the bologna escapade(man, you have to really love lunch meat to smuggle it in illegally) when I hit that last line. Most amusing, MM. And all too likely, I'm afraid.

According to a Danish Study...
Name me something from Denmark other than plain furniture and Victor Borge...
I Thought so!
Loved the Rubber Band, almost as versatile as Duct Tape.
Excellent 55 MM
Thanks for playing, and have a Kick Ass Week-End

Butt dialing. What an idea! hahaha :D

Janna said...

Trust me, people who are buttheads will still find a way to butt-dial.

Christine said...

the fact that I am so behind the times and have no idea how to even take the messages OFF my phone, I think I'm pretty safe with the brain cancer thing, thanks for the update

But butt dialing is so wonderfully random.

I love it when my college age son "butt dials" and has NO idea dear old mom is listening... :)

And that looks like one way OUTDATED cell phone -- it's HUGE! ha ha.

Yes, and cigarettes don't cause cancer either...

Evolution and science just have to provide us with at least ONE more set of hands-Thalidomide-?
Thanks.

I know I read something about a study involving microchip implants and thought transfer. It'll probably be out in time for Christmas ;)

Maude Lynn said...

Ha! Now, that's funny!

steveroni said...

Could we then say, "That Monkey Man has a 'telegraphic' memory"?

What's next...implant Dr Scholl's pads into our feet? One fine day we won't even talk...thought-transmittal is not that far off--hell, I've got it now--grin! (As in "Everybody hates me"--grin!) Or does that border on Paranoia. THERE! Implant 'paranoia seeds' into Peeps we don't agree with!

Tie to quit this, Steve....

Butt dialing is probably the most efficient way to communicate.

I'm laughing to hard to type straight!

But if someone has their head up their butt....

;)

Daydreamer said...

Haha... very novel.

The trouble is, they haven't been in use for long enough yet to know the long term damage, especially to teens who'll use them longer than adults.

I fear for the DNA of the next generation being born to cell phone parents. Baby Boomer's kids with ADD and autism and BPA in plastic. Now, cell phones. Terrifying. But, I wish they would attach them to their heads so when breeding, people can have a forewarning of a potentially bad mate.

PattiKen said...

Hmmm... That guy is unclear on the concept.

Pheromone Girl said...

I'm posting this from my cell phone. So, when they implant this fabulous technology, where will I find my keypad?

Claudya Martinez said...

I think I may have told you before that I saw a guy with the cellphone attached to his face with duct tape.
