OMG!

So, there's a case in Wyoming of a 13 year old girl that sent 20,000 text messages in one month.

I'm not sure whether that's impressive or sad. Certainly it's symptomatic of a generation that's going to be criminally deficient when it comes to basic spelling and grammar- not to mention over-reliance on technology. I'm not a Luddite by any stretch of the imagination, but can't you just call your friends on the phone? Or wait by their lockers during passing time?

Well, there's a kicker though (and this is the good part): the phone plan this girl was on? It didn't cover texting.

The bill: 5 grand.
The phone: Smashed, courtesy of Dad's hammer.
The girl: Grounded!
