Easy Marge, She said: “So then I got a job working for a major law firm in Boston”. You see, all it is a modern form of abbreviations. With me it comes from years of abbrevitated words on “Jeopardy”.
i was in the era before cell phones and computers, but it is just a dusty faded memory now, but will my sister ever come into the 80’s and start using a computer … i seriously doubt it
I remember writing letters home when I was in the Army, (and waiting in lines for hours to use a pay phone.) Then you had to wait nearly a week before you got a reply letter.
But you know, communications were more thoughtful and appreciated then.
Every notice that people talk more to one another electronically than in person? Talk to a stranger on an elevator and look comes across their face like I’ve invaded their territory or I am a mugger. I guess it is just safer to talk to people you know. That is another reason our kids our fat. Parents want to keep an eye on their children and keep them from going outside to play. How sad. Were there not goofy people when I was a kid? I can’t say I ever ran into anyone that wanted to hurt me unless it was a “big kid.”
