I REMEMBER BACK THEN WHEN YOUR INTERNET BROWSING WASNT FUN UNLESS U HAD AOL..EVENTHOUGH THERE IS A 5 YR. DIFFERENCE BETWEEN US, SHE DOESNT REMEMBER THOSE DAYS, BY THE TIME SHE STARTED USING THE INTERNET, THEY ALREADY HAD ALL THOSE OTHER WEBSITES OUT..I THINK 1994 WAS THE FIRST TIME I SURFED THE INTERNET ON MY 2400 SPEED DIAL UP MODEM, AND AT THE TIME, IT SEEMED FAST!!!.ALSO, I WORK AT STATEFARM INSURANCE, AND ONE OF MY CLIENTS CAME IN WITH HER 17YR.OLD SON CAUSE THEY JUST BOUGHT A CAR FOR HIM, FIRST I WAS SHOCK TO SEE THAT PEOPLE BORN AS YOUNG AS 1990 ARE DRIVING NOW, THEN NEXT, I TOLD THE THE KID ABOUT MY FIRST CAR AND HOW LUCKY HE IS ABOUT GETTING A BRAND NEW ONE. WHILE I WAS TELLING HIM HOW CRAPPY MY FIRST CAR WAS AND HOW I HAD ROLL-UP WINDOWS, HE STOPS ME AND SAY.."WHAT ARE ROLL-UP WINDOWS?"..I WAS LIKE "WOW", AND I TOLD HIM IT WAS A FEATURE FOR OLDER PEOPLE THEY DONT MAKE ANYMORE..
DO ANY OF YOU OLDER PEEPS HAVE ANY COMMENTS ON HOW THE TIMES HAVE CHANGED??
