I could beat ‘Technology Jones’

the tv station mojo runs a show called “technology jones.” it features a tech-off one’s rocker gyrate (haven’t seen a girl yet) who has to relinquish up all his gadgets for a week.it a way, it’s a modern survival story. it has nothing to do with living in the wild, hunting or making a fire, but for some of these guys, it ascendancy as well be.on a recent show, real estate instrument dave’s life gets transformed to the year 1971. a crew comes in to take all his “tech toys” away. they replace them with items used in 1971.dave, who lives in a lovely house in the hamptons, finds himself driving around in an old car without a cell phone, without a gps arrangement and without his patience. watching him take a run-out powder from payphone to payphone is both fascinating and frustrating, and when he crunches up his map and loudly declares “i don’t know how to peruse a map!” i have to disregard.he then has to host a dinner party, without special cooking gadgets. dave tries using a crockpot, then turns to the grill without much success. his only salvation: he knows how to mix old-fashioned drinks and can persevere in his guests happy.perhaps it all seems strange to me because i tip life without technology. i remember summers in the woods, without electricity and bathrooms, where we had to walk to the well to get water or bring gallons of water with us from domestic before we left.we still cooked, cleaned, bathed and socialized. we played music, we sang and danced and we sat up talking all night.there was a life before computers, before cubicle phones and before gps systems. it was called trustful your instincts and your creative abilities. it was called spending in the good old days b simultaneously with people who really mattered.every so often, i think people today secure lost that ability.
