I hope you’re not addicted to my blog or anything that has to do with the Internet, video games and those cutesy cell phones that do everything but gut a deer. It seems as if everywhere you look these days people are on their personal handheld devices, texting, calling or surfing.
I can't go hunting right now. I'm updating my Facebook page and I'm writing about it on Twitter.
If you’re one of the afflicted, I want to help you out. Here’s the answer.
Heavensfield Retreat Center has just opened in Fall City, Wash. It’s an in-patient center to help those of you with an addiction to Twitter, Facebook and the multitude of video games available online, or for purchase.
Through a series of steps you will eventually be weaned from the addictive nature of the electronic beast. According to Heavensfield, approximately six to 10 percent of those who participate in electronic interaction are addicted. That’s scary and another reason I rarely have my cell phone turned on!
Here’s the heart stopper. This service begins at $14,500. Ouch! I’m sure they feed you and counsel you, but there could be another answer. Maybe you should just turn the device off, purchase a hunting license and spend some time in the woods.
That’s my prescription. Take two and don’t call me in the morning. I’ll be hunting, not texting.
