The Calls

Sue Swartz --- Great exhibit at the Convention Center.  Check it out if you feel like it.

Sometimes I wish phone calls would shut off after 3 minutes.  Kind of like twitter.  Not all the time, but sometimes. I would call people more if that was an option.  If I knew a call was just going to shut down after 3 minutes, I'd share random thoughts and not worry about my old nemesis, TIME.  If I had the 3 minute option today, I'd call 20 Something and #1 Son.  I'd say, "Today I thought I heard a new kind of bird call in the yard.  I listened to it for awhile, wondering what kind of bird it could be.  Then I realized it was the washing machine making a squeaking sound.  We're playing bridge tonight. You doing okay?" 

Not super different than a text, but hearing the person's voice would be the significant benefit of this innovative approach to phone calling.
