I saw this yesterday and cracked up.  Yes, indeedy, I'm not yet part of the ROFLACGU crowd, but I will be one day soon.

One of the magazines I was reading the other day had some interesting statistics about cell phone and computer usage.  I can't remember which magazine it was, but what I found fascinating was that three generations - from pre-teens to baby boomers - had majorities that said they could not live without cell phones or computers.  The statistics were different for each group, but not by much.

I also saw that 15% of senior citizens admit to texting regularly.  I wonder if they're texting each other or their grandkids.  I know when hubby and I (and we're baby boomers not yet to the senior citizen state - although he's getting closer (sorry, dear)) texted a lot in the past, it was because he has a 14 year old daughter and that's her favorite mode of communication.
