  1. Disagree on the “Tag You’re It” etiquette. It’s up to the person who’s “it” to make the next call.

  2. Great list! Thanks!

    re: #10, a good rule of thumb our family follows with dropped calls is that when they happen, the original calling individual does the callback(s). This helps avoid the problem of both callers going straight to each other’s voice mail because you’re both trying to dial each other’s # at the same time.

  3. This is WONDERFUL! I use public transportation and I’m exhausted and frustrated with the barrage of loud, one-sided conversations regarding: work, confidential client information, who is the lamest in a marriage and–worst of all–the constant banality of people being bored so they call everyone they know while on the commuter train. Arrrggh. I’m going to print this up and hand it out. I’m serious.

Oh, it's the only real way to stay informed. So go on, read for a bit. It won't hurt, we promise.

Reading hasn't been this cool since smoking was first introduced. The great difference is we're pretty sure you can't die from daily reading, so go on and overdose a bit.
