A Slave To Technology

Let me do so writing on "The Deuce"

So I'm realizing that I, too, have become a slave to Technology. After fighting off the urge to delve into what's necessary in having the new technology of today I just can't deny these things to be true:

You need a cell phone.

And with that you get a computer, organizer, GPS system, entertainment center...the works. Al that fits into your pocket. But for this and all other technology one needs the appropriate equipment. The things that go in support of such gadgets. They're essential really. Like the "Batteries Not Included" or "Accessories sold Separately" tag on items, there are just some things you need to stay "Techie". Now I got shit to pick up and maintain. Damn! Why does this have to be so involved?

So what have I got?

Extra Power Cords....Because you need those USB cords when you're running low on power.

USB to outlet adaptors.....Because you cant always charge a device thru a USB link

Screen protectors....Because woe to the person who has a device that gets it's screen scratched.

Carrying case for said devices....Because they're delicate and need to be safeguarded. I mean, you can get away with having one....at your own risk.

Cloth to clean a screen...Because they always get dirty.

Batteries...Because a wireless mouse is the way to go.

Mouse pad....Because you just don't wanna work a mouse on any ole surface.

Earphones...Because sometimes you need to hear things directly.

All this extra shit...Not to mention needing to be aware of power sources. Electrical outlets are not like an oasis in the desert. Free Power !

The price of the new technology and it's benefits is all this. And I got to fall in line or fall behind.
