who's the boss?

burton [speaking in to his smartphone as we're driving]: "MOV!-IES! 2!-2!-1!-5!-3!"

me: "why do you have to talk so mean to it?"

burton: "... it respects me."

So funny! Had me laughing out loud at 2am when I read this but couldn't comment on it from my phone. You should blog more often!

I mean, really, it's not that hard :)

I wonder if you still get notifications that someone has COMMENTED on your blog? I gotta say, that as much as we love your Facebook posts, there is something about a blog that is so much more personal. Its like reading a book that is being developed in real-time and being able to add footnotes to the stories and even better, NO ADS!

Putting that aside, I have a question about this particular post. As a guy who talks to his phone all the time, and even enjoys her jokes when I am really bored (my phone has a very pleasing female voice - mom gets jealous sometimes), I don't get the "2!-2!-1!-5!-3!" part of Burton's command to his phone? Is 22153 the beginnings of a phone number? a zip code? or hopefully something exciting like a secret code to get your phone to reveal some never heard of commands you can give to your phone?

I have to admit, it is fun to be able to re-read posts from nearly a decade ago and still get a good laugh. You REALLY DO need to write a book! Love you!
