I would be so offended if I was the speaker at the meeting. It's like you can tell people are getting bored when they start pulling it ou.

I do like the 'Crack'berry when it is used with moderation and restraint.) I feel your pain. It absolutely drives me crazy when people pull their Blackberry’s out during lunch.
