Oprah's no text challenge

Everyone who knows me well knows that

I love Oprah.

Yes, sometimes she gets me angry like

when I sent her a heartfelt email and she

didn't even comment or get in touch with

me or anything.

Just like any friendship, I still love her.

Heck, I often say if Oprah knew me we would

be best friends and Gail would be history.

On the serious side,

Oprah had a show in December on

the tragedies of texting and driving.

Her guests were either people who lost loved ones

in car accidents because of texting

or others who caused the death of someone else

because of their own texting.

Oprah has a big campaign going called

NO PHONE ZONE

that many are signing.

I do not know if I could be brave enough to sign

that campaign because I don't know if I could

keep the challenge of no cell phone in the car at all.

However I have taken the

No text challenge.

I now will not text while driving as I did before

watching Oprah's show and seeing

the tragedies that texting caused.

I also now will only speak on the phone by

answering and putting the person on

speaker which accounts for hands free talking.

It is not a safe thing to do,

that texting and driving.

Google Oprah's challenge,

see the people's stories and you may

also become part of

Oprah's no text challenge.

Oh and don't worry BFOB,

Oprah never did answer me so you and I....

Well, lets just say, we are still tight.
