Cell phone crazy

My wife got me an upgrade on my cell phone. This one can fit into my pocket unlike the brick I used to have, so I wouldn't carry it around. Now that I have one I can, I get called constantly on it, and you can guess who is calling. On the other hand it is good to know someone needs you. Just hope she doesn't think I will carry it on a ride with me.
Today was pretty nice weather wise with a blustery northerly wind. The group sort of worked well for a while until Randy and I formed a second pace line which lasted our two pulls. No one would pull through so I just latched onto the first one and let the rest of them suffer with little draft due to the cross wind. When there is a cross wind on the levee only about 5 to 6 riders can enjoy a draft. If you are further back you need to ride in the grass to get anything or you are out in the wind. Hey second pace line makes sense. Well hopefully some of these guys will learn, but it looks like it will be the hard way. Much like the crazy cell phone use of today's generation. I still remember the days of rotary phones...
