She's apparently Facebook's oldest user, at the age of 101. Apparently Facebook applauds use of their social networking site by older folks, as they invited Ms. Detlor to Facebook headquarters and gave her a tour.
So that story got me to thinking. My dad, if he were still alive, would be 93 years old. If he could handle the technology of Facebook, what would his posts look like?
First of all, I'm thinking that this would be his profile picture.
On his profile, he'd probably write something like "what are you, a cop?"
Other features:
A whole album of photos dedicated to the attractive meteorogists on The Weather Channel.
A link to an article about how to get soft boiled egg residue off bowls that have been sitting on the counter for two days.
Quotes from John F. Kennedy, Fighting Bob LaFollette, and Mo Udall.
Some of his posts might look like this:
"Banana? Don't mind if I do."
"If you can't dazzle 'em with your brilliance, baffle 'em with bullsh**."
"The Today Show hasn't been the same since Frank McGee left."
"No I won't water your damn farmville crops. I'll crop you right over the head."

One small detail I like about Bonnaroo ... the security people's shirts say "Safety" and "Here to help". They seem well-trained and they do the things security folk do ... but I like the emphasis on safety and that they're doing these things...
