Coffee anyone ?

Bruce, these young people are so talented these days. They can get the perfect picture in a selfie. How to hold the phone out and click the button to take the picture without getting a close up of a thumb, is beyond my talents. LOL

Yeah, but we old people know how to use OLD technology that today's kids never heard of. Wonder how long it would take them to figure out a rotary phone.

We are so old we dialed our friends on a rotary phone while listening to an 8 track!

 

[Bruce]

Yeah back then the parents had SOME idea what was happening. Now the kids text, make plans and all of a sudden their friends are going to be "here" in 15 minutes.

They probably couldn't figure it out. there's no pictures or a touch screen and it doesn't talk back to you and give directions.....

 

[Bruce]

True!

Something else that causes snarls, strange looks, and disgust from kids nowa days is eating anything cold out of the fridge without sticking it in the microwave first.....even a hot dog.....and they can't believe it when I tell them we didn't have air conditioning either....we just sweated in bed with the windows up and skeeters biting....

I know how to use it. That's what we used to use. Does that mean I'm old now?

I still don't have air conditioning, and my son has his heat pump set in the summer so the house is 75. It is too hard on us to go from 90 outside, to a 65 inside then back out again....And the only time he uses the "air conditioning" in the one tractor is when he is mowing with the discbine, or baling with the round baler. It is too hot in a cab tractor to not use the air, and the danger of mowing with the discbine REQUIRES you to use the cab tractor and the dirt/dust from the round baler would choke you so you have to use a cab. They will get as hot as a car in the sun on a hot day....
And I refuse to use a microwave because it "irradiates" your food and basically kills all the nutrients in it so your body is eating sterile food that doesn't feed the cells.....I have a convection oven. And hot dogs are best in a cast iron pan on the stove if you can't put them on the grill...
