That’s one part of the human brain that never really developed. The part that does self editing. But most people fight with their editors and critics so if we had that part it might cause us sever self-loathing. I don’t know. When someones’ conversation goes on too long, I tune out. When writing is to wroding or rambling, I skim. And I never turn on TV. Voice mail? We still seem kind of trapped there, don’t we?
my mom in the past would not leave a voicemail, which really irritates me, cuz i’ll just get an empty voicemail so she started leaving me voicemail where she’ll go “HOWARD, (yes, she yells it) it’s your mom, gibberish” and then hang up…all in Chinese.
uh mom, i have a direct line with very good recording capability, no need to shout. i’m not deaf….yet.

hehe… my mom hates them. when she does manage to collect herself to leave me a message, they are always under 20 seconds.

LOL–mothers are funny.
She leaves you long voice mail messages because:
a) You have voice mail.
b) She’s your mother.
c) When are mothers EVER succinct?
