Walter Kirn on multitasking:

“Where do you want to go today?” was really manipulative advice, not an open question. “Go somewhere now,” it strongly recommended, then go somewhere else tomorrow, but always go, go, go—and with our help. But did any rebel reply, “Nowhere. I like it fine right here”? Did anyone boldly ask, “What business is it of yours?” Was anyone brave enough to say, “Frankly, I want to go back to bed”?

This article is quite entertaining. I would make more witty comments about it, but I just got a text message.

I'm glad someone is saying it.

I would certainly like to go to bed right now :-)
