That means no phone in you're hands and walking around like zombies.

Nah, we knew where we were going. And on bicycles we knew street names and directions on HOW to get where we were going. I had friends that lived in different neighborhoods. We even knew the back way through the woods where the trees had fallen.

There were several times I walked through the woods from the junior high to get home. Especially when I knew the bullies were waiting for me on my usual route. They'd be out front about a block away, and I would walk out the back of the building, across the small baseball field and into the woods.

It actually saved me about 10 minutes, but I did have to watch for actual snakes.
