Gee wizz, and I was going to get all of you an Ipod for next Christmas! Dang it, I guess it's gonna be kazoos for the lot of you...
Well,I've used lots of modern things that appear on this list although most are things that I would-and do-gladly live without:
Never used an Ipod (kazoo,yes,beautifully... ). GPS. I hate driving but if I do, I have more faith in old paper maps. Never had my own web page. Never had one of those Star Trek like cell phones that stick out of your head. Never wore a pair of shoes that had wheels except actual roller skates. Bought a Playstation used in 1995. I played it a handful of times and decided that I don't care for video games so I got rid of it (I gave it a try!)
I find it inspiring that so many people here are choosing to live a simpler life. So much of the modern world is unneccessary at least and downright harmful (to ourselves and/or the planet).
I'd gladly give up most modern things and try to enjoy a simpler way such as the one that LizzieMaine seems to have,but I could never get my wife to go for it. I'm working on getting her to share my hatred of plastic bags right now. After that maybe we can kick the TV out...
