Who: Me & Bud, and possibly an Ambien
When: Early January 2011
What: Bud has been retired for 2 years now. He has taken to using the computer when he has nothing better to do. If only he used the computer for good instead of evil...and sleep.
What happens when an aging Baby Boomer intersects with modern technology? Hilarity.

Social Media
Who: Me, wife, Sister, Brother-in-Law, Bud
Where: Tampa, FL. In the car after the Super Bowl.
When: February 2009
What: We begin discussing the use of social media. The conversation was about some woman, not important who really, and about how we had recently reconnected.
Me: "Yeah, so we hadn't been in touch since high school."
Bud: "Is she on MyFace?"
Me: (car laughing) "Do you mean Myspace?"
Bud: "No, is it FaceSpace? Spacebook?"
Me: (peeing myself) "Oh, you mean Facebook..."
Bud: "That's it!"
MyFace. Had the founders of MySPACE thought of that name, it would've been a TOTALLY different site.
