The Kind-Hearted Smart Aleck

Is it just me or are smartphones too touchy? What I mean by that is, how often do you not remember pressing any button on the phone, yet find a way to have clicked on an application, gone online, or made a phone call without your knowledge? With my old phone (when I say old, I mean almost ancient), I could have left it in my pocket, dropped it several times, pressed a number of buttons, yet nothing would have happened. With my new smartphone, I'll check it every few days and see that I accidentally called someone I hadn't spoken to for many years while my phone rested in my pocket. Well, I thought it was resting. Apparently, it had other ideas. One of these days, my uber-touchy smartphone will likely get me into trouble.

If anyone knows of another Boggle-like game I could start playing on my Android phone, all suggestions would be welcome.

Yeah, so I loved Mitt Romney's recent comments about his home state of Michigan, when he said, “I was born and raised here. I love this state. It seems right here. The trees are the right height. I like seeing the lakes. I love the lakes. There’s something very special here. The Great Lakes, but also all the little inland lakes that dot the parts of Michigan. I love cars.” Rumor now has it that Romney did s ome ecstasy shortly before making these comments and will continue to do so on his 50-state I-Love-You-All Tour, where he will tell Floridians he loves Disneyworld and elders, Wisconsinites he loves cheeseheads, Coloradans he loves the double high of climbing a mountain after smoking a bowl, Californians he loves Ronald Reagan films and Hawaiians he loves getting lei'd. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RHaMqHh5NZ4
