The Beat Goes On...
My phone decided to go on vacation without me... a senior trip perhaps. Alas, after ditching its friends while a little tipsy and jet lagged in a seedy section of Kingston it was picked up by white slavers, being fooled by promises of a ride back to the hotel, and was never to be heard from again. However, this story has already been told and will not on this occasion turn into an international media incident, the State Department will not get involved, its father will not plead with local authorities to make a shady arrest and there won't be a television movie airing shortly after Sweeps that will have to fudge the it's actually anticlimactic and not-so-happy ending. Why? Because it has already been replaced... by a new story, equally sensational and even glitzier. Sad? Not really, that's the way the world works. Besides this new story has a full keyboard, comes with better ringtones, isn't nearly as prissy and was very low maintenance in the monetary department given the current upgrade eligibility. But, will we be able to keep it safe at the beginning of the new school year, after it moves into the dorms suddenly thrust into a brave new world of alcohol, drugs, sexual promiscuity with virtually no adult influence or supervision? We shall see, dear friends... we shall see.
