Sometimes I get bothered by the fact that people feel that they have to be available to be contacted at all times. It's ok to be unavailable sometimes. First there's the home phone, then the cellphone, there's beepers and instant messenger, and away messages which get left on for hours at a time. Now there are cellphones that beep and have instant messenger. And internet connections. And they're in color.

I think things are going a little too far.
