Cellphones

After years of debate, Michigan is officially banning smartphones during class time. Here’s what’s allowed, how schools may enforce it, and why many educators say this could actually work.

It feels long overdue. Michigan lawmakers are moving toward getting phones out of classrooms, cutting distractions and pushing students to actually focus during the school day.

I'm very lucky I have a kid that responds almost immediately after I text him. Granted he's only 13 and that will probably all change as he gets a little older. Not every parent has is as good as I do when it comes to this.

Over the years we've witnessed so many videos of people getting hurt while walking and texting. While most of those videos were hilarious, there have also been many cases where people have been seriously injured.

If you had a cellphone in 1989, you were the cat's ass! You could get this sweet phone for just $799 at Radio Shack and get this, you could take it to the beach, the construction site and use it in your car or boat.

Back in the 1990's, people didn't have Android or Iphones.  They had giant plastic monstrosities that were connected to car batteries.  And they just didn't give them away in cereal boxes like they do now, you had to go to Radio Shack and give them like 3,000 dollars just for the phone.
