Does it really matter to you how annoyed your friend is when she posts on Facebook how loud the person next to her is at the coffee shop? Or how your friend feels after staying out too late? But if you have a funny story ab... continue reading...

Well, friends, my on-again-off-again relationship with FamilyFirst that has lasted ten years is, I'm sorry to say, off again. The company which owns this blog has decided to go a different direction, which doesn't include me.
I wish them the best of luck in their future endeavors. And I hope ... continue reading...
September 13, 2008 Today's FamilyFirst pick will combine two of my favorite things: Wikipedia, and Firefox.
Wikipedia, YOUR encyclopedia, is the source for much of the research that I use for my Boomer nostalgia blog.

Ok, so 85% of you out there (I'm taking the figure from those who visit my I remember JFK blog) are still running Windows.
Fair enough.
After all, Windows 2000 was a quantum leap for the manufacturer of operating systems, and XP was even better. Those two versions comprise 73% of what ... continue reading...

How things have changed. Now, setting u... continue reading...
