The computer swallowed grandma.
Yes, honestly it’s true!
She pressed 'control' and 'enter'
And disappeared from view.
It devoured her completely,
The thought just makes me squirm.
She must have caught a virus
Or been eaten by a worm.
I've searched through the recycle bin
And files of every kind;
I've even used the Internet,
But nothing did I find.
In desperation, I asked Mr. Google
My searches to refine.
The reply from him was negative,
Not a thing was found 'online.'
So, if inside your 'Inbox,'
My Grandma you should see,
Please 'Copy,''Scan' and 'Paste' her
And send her back to me.

This is a tribute to all the Grandmas (and Grandpass !!!) who have been fearless and learned to use the
Computer. They are the greatest!!!

How about you? What is your relationship with technology?

Great ! I am one of these "grandmas" who had improved the relationship with Technology.
ReplyDeleteActually my granchildren teached me a lot.
ReplyDeleteI, like Perla, felt to be updated with technology and my grandchildren helped me a lot.
I appreciate them very much.

After reading your comments, it seems to me that technology could be useful to link the different generations... If you ask me, it depends on the way you think about it. It could be something to help you approach your children and grandchildren, but it could also be another excuse to drift apart from them. It's up to you!
ReplyDeleteThe last picture, the one that says "There are no digital natives" is linked to a very interesting online article, have you read it? If you haven't yet, don't miss it!!!
ReplyDeleteClick on the image to read a critial article on the dichotomy "digital natives, digital immigrants".
WONDERFUL !! IS FUNNY, BUT NOW A DAY I AM FIGHTING AGAINST THE PC BECAUSE INSTEAD OF BEING MY FRIEND SHE IS NOT BEHAVING FRIENDLY

It's also an exercise for your patience! Take it easy! Talk to her sweetly, turn it off and on again, and if all that doesn't work, call a technician and have it fixed!!!! =)
