I don't want to be killed by a driver who is texting! Do you? It's a shame that those who text while driving don't have good sense! They will kill you or me not themselves!

@AWB. I wrote a blog about this topic today. I thought you might be interested in my approach to it. http://bit.ly/doGvRc -Caleb

The law, while well intentioned is basically unenforceable, as I wrote.

They have some nice Pike and Muskellunge in Tippecanoe, and I caught a 46 inch Pike when I lived on Hamilton Lake. The Muske in Tippe are very elusive. Hell, they all are.

I just don't think that text while driving is a nanny state issue. Wearing a seatbelt or a helmet only effects you. When the state orders you to do something for your own protecting, just like your nanny would. Texting is more like drinking and driving. Your not only going to kill yourself but my kids!

They only grow them like that in the great white north .

What's that got to do with texting CFL Light Bulbs, forced health care, etc?

And where do you catch Pike like that?

Damn! If this keeps up, pretty soon you wont be able to drink and drive, speed, or run red lights! The state is going to hell in a hand basket!
