That Darn Phone......

[Bob]

In this day and age, there are exactly two people I'll pick up the phone for: my wife and my brother.


Every unknown number gets silenced. If you call and don't leave a voicemail, you're getting blocked. The world's crawling with scammers.

Church, several years ago. A little kid was entertaining herself on her Mom's phone.
They're in the pew in front of me. And it rings real loud.

Now, everyone's looking at me.. the new guy..who nobody recognizes. Dirty looks all around. Daggers. Silent curses. Glaring glances when I went up for Communion.

I tell you, that morning God was my only friend there.

Looking back, the right thing to do would have been growing animated and loud, like Steve Martin. Pointing dramatically, "It was her ! It was the little girl."

Welp, live & learn....
