Luddite refers to a tailor in England in the 19th century that saw his future threatened by the sewing machine. So they formed mobs and smashed factories. Sounds reasonable. Actually, I like new things, but I’m always way behind. I didn’t have the internet until 2007 and I was then promptly talked into MySpace. Glad I spent countless hours on there changing my themes and what not. I also was late to Twitter and still don’t fully grasp the #tags, but my teeming mass of 50 some followers (I think, not really sure) don’t seem to mind. I also bought a phone with internet, but haven’t switched from my old phone b/c I hate the ring tones on the new one and I have better things to do than screw with it. I have decided to let my current phone die, then I’ll switch. Then again, I could be my parents, who have me fix their TV b/c they accidentally hit the source button and their TV is in the nether region of “Input 1” instead of “Cable.” Dad still asks me how to program the VCR and Mom asked me to hook up her new printer, quote “Where does the phone line go?” “Are you receiving faxes?” “No.” “Then nowhere.” Pause. “You’d still better set it up.”
