On MSN messenger.
With the advent the real time computers have brought us, I get talk (type) to the old man.
My dad, who looks like Paul Newman and talks like John Wayne.
This is overwhelming to me.
I will get know him better and him me.
I am so grateful he’s still alive. But I fear when he’s not there on my MSN family list. He’s a man. Just a man. And I’ve known so many men before, in many different ways. He’s just one more.
yep, I do the same. A couple minutes a time a couple times a week. it’s pretty cool especially compared to the old days when international calls were too expensive and mail took a couple weeks if I was somewhere where mail could be delivered…
He’s 74, almost 75. Still sharp as a tack. I think its great that he is still up to learning something new. My mother on the other hand won’t even try and she was a keypunch operator way back when.
Now days with families so far apart this new communication can keep us closer and up to date on each others lives.
I also enjoy that “appear off-line” feature. lol
