My granny doesn't play Bingo. My granny doesn't watch Wheel of Fortune. My granny doesn't pinch my cheeks. Why not? Because my grandma is cooler than yours. How can this be? Simple. My granny is online, and she likes to surf the web. There's no AOL for this gal, she has a raw data stream flowing into her PC (not Mac). She likes to start at Yahoo! and browse around from there. She'll tell you anything you ever wanted to know and then some, and she learned about it on the web. If I ever get sick, I can rest assured that good old granny will care for me with a bowl of homemade chicken soup and a printout on the latest news on my ailment. She always signs her e-mail with "Love Mom Mom" and she X's out of the program when she is done. And while she is doing all this fast and furious typing, she likes to listen Beethoven's "Fur Elise" with her MIDI Player. Her computer can do anything. She can fax you or send you e-mail. She'll type up a letter to you just to say Hello. And if she is ever watching Good Morning America and she can't copy down the recipe fast enough, why she'll just saunter over to her brand spanking new Pentium, hook into the Net and get it there. After all, she is my online granny. Let's hear from granny: Thank you but you didn't note that granny will be able to keep in touch with her grandchildren when they are away from her, thus they won't hear "You could have called;" It will be, "You could have dropped a line." And here is granny's little blurb. Her e-mail is pegoh@netreach.net. I am the Online Granny. Let me tell you how proud of eight delightful grandchildren this granny is, especially John my patient teacher. Because of his tutoring I can print a calendar and keep up with my grandmother runs. |
