You are forgetting the old part.

Now they are; they weren't then.

Thanks for all the birthday wishes, D'name!

Just got a card from my sister:

The front has a baby. Says, "Your birthday is a celebration of your parents' love and passion."

Inside: "Now try to get that ugly image out of your head."

Ewwwwwwwwwww.

i would like a radio that gives me ham. bacon would be even better.

if they don't have computer skills, then they don't have to consider them when designing the computer-based system, since they will likely never use it. surely there is still a parallel telephone based system for communicating with whatever company?

just let me be the caboose and wish poof a happy birfday.

dontwantaname wrote://sigh

They didn't use computers at work.

Step father has been dead 10 years.
Computers weren't a necessity then.
My mother isn't the type to
1. pay for a computer
2. go to the senior center to take a class
3. pay money, real money, for a computer
4. hell, even if we gave her one, she wouldn't
5. go to learn how to use it.

Heck, my father in law and my dad were TV repair men.

My dad quit that to work as an electrical engineer (title until they decided you needed a degree for it) and had a Ham radio as a hobby.
Both would be the type to try out computers...after they built one.
(remember building your own? Hubby built 3 before they got too complicated and he started buying them)

My mother in law worked in the store and had a computer.
She never learned how to do anything other than what she had to do when she took in a TV and printed a receipt.
She can't get email, or go to a web site.


So why is it weird that if you are setting up a system for retirees, you might want to consider that the oldest group doesn't have computer skills?????

Never mind. Sorry I said anything.

dontwantaname wrote:Why?

They aren't your parents.
Maybe they were a good looking couple.

It made me thing of my parents; think of your parents doing it.
