Windows Phone

I'm watching CBS at 1.05pm. It's supposed to be the Phoenix Open, but they're showing some snippets from men's college basketball instead.

Just saw a commercial for Windows Phone, which of course I've seen before. People walking around texting with their phones instead of watching where they are going. So there's a guy in a urinal who drops his phone and his next door neighbor says, "Really?" and then there's a person on a street walking and cannoning in to another pedestrian. Then, the worst one, some dad reading his iphone and holding out a glove with his other hand while his young son says, "Really" - then throws the baseball as hard as he can at the man's head.

Not funny...since getting hit in the head with a ball has killed a few people recently, and of course there was the case a few years ago when a college pitcher deliberately threw a ball at a player in the batter's box - who wasn't even looking at him - and ended up costing that boy one of his eyes. (And did that prevent the pitcher from going pro? Of course not. But karma evens it all and he never got out of the minor leages.)
