Hey, look at me. I'm making a post on my blog!

Facebook in the Nursing Home Part 3

There is a God and He hates me. Just days after my blog about old people having Facebook pages who pops up with one? My mother! It is a sad day in cyberspace, Facebook is officially dead. I think just for fun I'm going to find the most offensive quizzes and send them to her. And then convince her it's not me sending them, but someone else named Kelley Davenport. Better yet, I'll get her log in and go on there and start posting rude comments on all her fellow old lady friends. Come to think of it, old people on Facebook might be fun. Oh well, I guess I've learned my lesson about complaining and posting things on my Blog, they come true.

That being said: It drives me CRAZY when Heidi Klum barges into my office and wants to make out!

Facebook in the Nursing Home, Pt 2

After a good nights sleep I realize I may have been too harsh on old people using Facebook. The old lady I referred to just really annoyed me in general. So that may have factored into my rant last night. However, I still don't think old people need to have a Facebook. Of course, age is relative, to someone I'm an old person. Anyway, I still pray that my mother never gets one!

Facebook in the Nursing Home

So it's time for my once every three month post. But today I'm at a birthday party for the daughter of a friend of mine. A family friend of theirs came by, she is about 65 years old. She wouldn't shut up about her Facebook account. Now, I'm not stupid, I know there is an invasion of Gen X people (that's people my age) on Facebook. But at least Gen Xers actually had computers when we were in High School. We're all just trying to hold onto the fact that we are still young and cool, as I drag my three kids to McDonald's. But there is no reason this old lady should have a Facebook. Basically all she does is post pictures of her family and friends. Why? Can't she just dig in her big old purse, under her checkbook, and pull out a photo album? That's what old ladies carry, check books and photo albums. I'm not so much bothered by the fact she has a Facebook account, but she kept walking around asking people if "they saw that picture on Facebook". Of course, now that I think about it, what else does she have to do? Teenagers and old people have a lot in common. Other people take care of them. They don't have a job so they have nothing better to do then sit on the computer. They poop their pants. OK, maybe that was just me . . . I mean that weird kid across the street. So maybe Facebook is the perfect place for retired people. Maybe they need their own social networking site: OldFarts, My Depends, Old Face, Face Where are My Dentures. I don't know. I'm just glad my mom hasn't signed up for Facebook. I spent 4 days on the phone with her trying to explain how to scan and e-mail a picture. Could you imagine her calling me every time she got a request to take a quize or fill our a survey! Oh well, Facebook will be dead soon enough. Kids will move on to something else. I just with I could figure out what that is so I could invent it.

Cool Commercial

I really like this commercial our church put out. I think it's the best one we've ever done. Which is a little odd since I had nothing to do with it. I guess there are other talented people in our office. Who knew?!? Props to my good friend Andrew for the closing graphic. Once again proving his mad skills. Enjoy! (Sorry for the poor video quality. It really looks much better then this, but this is the only copy Bill would give me. Looser!)

Looking for something to do to kill time at work?

Try this:

1. Call a local grocery store

2. Ask for the meat department

3. Ask whoever answers the phone if they carry turducken

Better yet, try doing the above in person.  I guarantee you this is the reply you will get in either scenario:  “A what . . .”  and/or “A turducken . . . hold on”

It’s great fun!
