CyberParents

My dad and step-mom came to visit me this weekend, and we had a nice time. But it amused me to note that I couldn't get them to stop messing with their cell phones whenever they had a free second.

Presumably they were texting their homies back in da Wash. These kids today.

(So engrossed were they that I had no trouble snapping this picture of them with my own cell phone.)

That IS funny. Hope they read your post! Then there's me, who barely knows what button to push to answer a call....so never fear, there'll always be a Luddite in your family (but I don't send letter bombs.)

In my defense, we had just gotten new phones and it takes me at least 6 months to figure out all the buttons! However, I do feel more up-to-date now that I music on my phone!

Geesh! If my sister had not read this blog and informed me that my sneaky son had surreptitously taken these pictures with his stealth cell phone I would never known that he was maligning his aged parents. To think I already mailed his birthday present. To all his friends out there...now that he is 30,do you 20 somethings now shun him and ban him to the netherworld? I asked him after our visit to Google, where I observed no one over 30, if the "old people" went into some incineration chanmber and just disappeared? What happens to the old techies?
