Last year Free Range strip had a scene of a bus with everyone looking at a cell phone except one person reading a book. A cop with raised gun said: “whatever it is..lower it slowly”.
When I go pick my son up from school I take my Kindle and I get looks all the time from other parents as I’m the only person reading a book while waiting. The looks range from curiosity to almost shock. A few parents have even gone as far as casually looking over my shoulder to see what I was up to. Maybe making sure I wasn’t using the camera or some creepy thing like that. I have the camera covered over with tape so no chance of that.

Never happen. They couldn’t put their phones down long enough to do anything about him.

Looks like Donald Sutherland in the last scene of “Invasion of the Bodysnatchers.”

Looks like a scene out of Fahrenheit 451.

Is the one in the pink tank top a man or a woman?

Smart phones will disappear when they learn how to interface directly to the brain.
