    A friend called me up the other day and talked about investing in a dot-com that sells lobsters. Internet lobsters. Where will this end? The next day he sent me a huge package of lobsters on ice. How low can you stoop?

The cell phone has transformed public places into giant phone-a-thons in which callers exist within narcissistic cocoons of private conversations.
