never thought...

...we'd have to plug in our car to make it go
...i'd be able to type remotely from a "blue tooth" wireless keyboard
...i could take pictures/video with a telephone
...store pictures in a cloud
...my washing machine would play music
...the kids could read their favorite books on a handheld computer screen
...we'd watch movies on a big wall in our home
...play arcade games in the palm of our hands
...purchase groceries on-line and have them show up at my door

It is down right ridiculous how far technology has come.  It boggles my mind sometimes, and makes my kids laugh when I tell them what it was like when I was growing up..."you had to stand next to the wall mounted phone to talk on it?!  You didn't have a computer until you were in college?!  You  couldn't look at your pictures until you developed them?!"  BWAAAA-HAAA-HAAAA-HA!  yep, I'm feeling old!

side note: I broke my telephone screen and have to replace it...ouch!  high-tech stuff is costly!
