An Un-Unibomber

My brother and I once had a conversation in which he said he totally thought Ted Kasinsky had the right idea - except for the bombs, lack of electricity and lack of indoor plumbing.

It took me a minute but I realized he meant living as a recluse. And Ted Kasinsky was the most popular recluse of the time. I thought my brother was nuts when he said this. Who in their right mind would want to live alone in a shack in Montana?

I'm having one of those days when that sounds pretty damn good.

I often feel that way. Among the things I frequently hate are cell phones, e-mail, and telephones. Walking around Wal-Mart today and seeing everyone talking on their cell phones, I thought to myself, why in the hell would anybody want to always be talking to someone?
