Silly Site o' the Day

Via Susie, it's the Society of HandHeld Hushing, or SHHH! I devoted a huge chunk of a recent ComicMix column to people having private cell phone conversations in public, and it's nice to get vindication that I'm not the only one driven crazy by this. I'm half-tempted to download the PDF of their giveaway cards, but you know, I did that sort of thing with subway solicitors back in the '80s, and it wound up being far more trouble than it was worth in a number of ways. Besides, I was guilty of this back in March, when I was answering job interview questions on a homeward-bound express bus and another passenger made me hang up. Didn't get the job, but I'm far better off with the one I have.
