I am the first to admit my iPad is the coolest thing in the world, but when we can be in a room together and really connect, or leave the gadgets home and go for a hike, then I'm happy. ↗

Some people today are wandering generalities instead of meaningful specifics because they have failed to discover and mine the wealth of potentials in them. ↗

Although I hardly ever turn on the TV set unless it's football season, I do watch a lot of TV on my iPad - perfect for long airplane journeys. ↗
