Then there were pagers.

There still is. (pagers) Thus no excuses for anyone to be rude on a date. Answering the phone and yapping while making the person you're with sit there is, well,... whenever I used to see it on shows like "blind date" etc, I would cringe and curse the idiot doing it, for being so self-involved.

A single parent should be able to have a date and trust that the person left in charge of their brats is competant enough to handle whatever comes up. (or prevent "whatever" from happening)

Again, people left their kids with others back in the day before the almighty cell. Like you said, they left the # of the restaurant in case of emergency.

The message was so garbled he thought "it was time" and in 15 minutes he and 4 of his employees came bursting through the door ready to rush me to the hospital. And the bastard didn't bring any milk.

I agree having a cell makes a lot of things easier. Getting stuck on the side of a deserted highway will never be the same thanks to it, for example. But being in a business meeting or in a movie theater or on a date isn't among them.

(you of course already know this, I'm speaking to the masses for the most part)
