So funny!

And 100% true.

Well, there you go. I'm sold!

I forgot about that one.

:kick:

John McCain's age has nothing to do with his ignorance in dealing with technology. It speaks more to his lack of interest of both technology in general, as well as interacting with the social groups the are unheralded since the dawn of the internet.

Funny thing is I have a feeling most of the people giggling weren't BORN when people like my father were working with the W3C(World Wide Web Constortium), drafting legislation, and working to make sure that technology is available to people with disablities. I worked in the same field and I can tell you there are plenty of people in their 70's that have forgoten more operating systems than the average thirty year old knows existed.

We better be careful with this one. It seems extremely age-biased, and could come back at us as such. I would love for this lady and my father to spend some time together. Guys like my old man not only 'get it', they freaking built it.

:rant:

For all he knew that meant an oral secretary.

I'd love to see some statistics based on age as to the prevalence of computer usage. Something tells me they would be much, much lower in McCain's age group.

There are 40 year olds who are just as clueless as McCain about the internet, computers, sending email. It's embarrassing -- where have they been?

The point is - it's not enough to just be "aware that it exists" Is this the person we want as leader of our country? I think 8 years of a bumbling fool in the white house is enough. Let's choose someone who is intelligent, thoughtful, caring, and has actual leadership qualities.

I think I want a total idiot again! It's been so interesting, and so good for the country (or at least a few of my dummy neighbors think so).

HeeHee.
