A Store Without a Checkout Counter? JCPenney Presses on with Retail Revolution

[Nickels]

I didn't forget anything. I stated all advancements are not a positive improvement.Most are not balanced against the cost in intial outgo, repair, and loss of privacy/peacefulness. I prefer my bicycle to the car, less maintenance, but real hassle when the whole family goes somewhere. So the car, like the magicjack is a handy tool. If my car starts to spy on me then I will be rid of it for most of what it is used for now, which is short intown uses. See the thread here: http://www.ronpaulforums.com/showth...Could-Be-Tracked-By-GPS-Taxed-Per-Mile-Driven You are the one making a 99% argument. Re the phone:You can't see it because you like the phone. I see it has cost me $1440 for the past 4 years for an instrument that I do not want and do not like to answer.

No, I do see the cost. I just find it worth it. Do you bicycle your kids to doctors? I hope you never need to get them to an ER quick. You are free to depend on paid phones, I hope they'll always work and you always have coins on you.

I have now made that about $150 option for 6 or 7 years I don't recall which, and don't raise eyebrows with folks that think they are entitled to ring me up at their convenience.

In a free world the option would exist. We do not live in a free world. Something as petty as having cable can and has been used in family court to try to prove the unfitness of a family that dearly loves their children. Dissenters are not tolerated, especially when they have children.

For somebody who knows so much about math and benefits you sure didn't plan out the children.

How many laws have you broken today for which a nosey neighbor might want to rid the neighborhood of you? Trust me, you might think you have nothing to fear, but rare is the person who hasn't broken some law no matter how unintentional for which their life can be made miserable by pissing off the wrong person. I m the type that has learned not to give any more ammo to those who might have ulterior motives. Learned it the hard way....

my neighbors are my best friends, I can see why you are full of complaints. you blame everything wrong with your life on somebody else, that's why you can't trust your neighbors and avoid phone calls. You might be praying that one day my neighbors will betray me and i'll pay the ultimate price for trusting them, but it hasn't happened yet.

And no you cannot get away with not giving a contact number with various services. Many services demand a working contact number to which foisting it upon family members is unfair. I don't have to explain to you which services, but it was necessary.

I can't see what services are more necessary that you can't see the benefit of having a phone for....oh wait, you do. You already know its unfair to foist on your family members.

1-Have a car. All technolgical "improvement" is not bad just much of the current array of technology is invasive.
2-I would have conis since they are near my home. Since I live in town most things are within walking distance, yes that includes the hospital. So were the car to break down on a day with an medical emergency I would most likely not be inconvenienced.
3-Didn't plan out children? Says you? My children are a wonderful asset to my life. I don't do math the way you are doing it
4-I don't blame everything wrong in my life on somebody else. Do you get your jollies by putting down others? I have had some bad neighbors before and learned to keep to myself. Current home is great and so are the neighbors. I don't pray for anyone to go through what we went through, but sometimes life has a way of biting those who are most sure of themselves squarely in the keister to keep them on their toes.

Thanks for finally admiting that.

2-I would have conis since they are near my home. Since I live in town most things are within walking distance, yes that includes the hospital. So were the car to break down on a day with an medical emergency I would most likely not be inconvenienced.

Funny that you don't consider everything being in walking distance to be 'invasive' and appreciate the convenience.

3-Didn't plan out children? Says you? My children are a wonderful asset to my life. I don't do math the way you are doing it

Oh really, can you tell me how much they're worth? You seem to be good at telling me what every little thing costs.

4-I don't blame everything wrong in my life on somebody else. Do you get your jollies by putting down others? I have had some bad neighbors before and learned to keep to myself.

Personally, I'm about 10 minutes from it.

How sad for you.
