BUY IT TODAY~IT'S AN ANTIQUE TOMORROW

DONNIE:  "Saw an item that says, not only TV, but even the Internet is fast fading as a "platform" as younger people do everything on hand-helds, cell phones and iPad type devices.  The article said desktops and even laptops will be as antique as typewriters, the original walkie-talkie size cell phones or pay phones (what are they?)

How true that is.  I watch Seinfeld re-runs every afternoon on the WB and they are constantly using those big old cordless phones with the antenna sticking out the top.  I remember, they looked like a "Star Wars" device when they first came out.  Now, they look as old fashioned and silly as the old wringer wash machine that mother used to use.

The old phrase "times change" used to mean things changed by the year or decade.  Now, it seems, times change by the month.
