Earlier this week, I was dragged kicking and screaming into 2014. My old flip phone literally fell apart. Went to the Verizon store to get another one just like the old one and the young 20 something laughed and thought I was joking. I finally settled (after much anguish) on something called Galaxy S5. I can't even make a simple phone call on this gadget. My son has something similar to this abomination and has agreed to come over this weekend and tutor me to at least be able to make and receive calls. While I'm bitchin about phones I might as well put in my 2 centavos about new radios. My old IC-736 has worked flawlessly for many years. Recently I went a bit nuts and bought a new 7000. It is now back in the box under the desk and my trusty old 736 is back in operation. Ain't technology wonderful?
