This is a Test

Welcome back!

This is a test, this is only a test. If this was an actual emergency…..what are you doing on the internet?

I have wanted to say that for some time now. So many people are on the internet, and don’t watch TV any more, I wonder how many would miss something going on? I have grown up hearing that announcement on the TV stations when they test the emergency broadcasting signal, that I can sometimes hear that voice in my sleep.

Our nation has gone so digital that computer terminology has made it into the mainstream language of everyday people. Even an analog person like I am has heard some things. Okay for example: text me, LOL, ROFL. There is even an irritating commercial where the mother of the family is trying to talk to the family members and all they want to do is talk using the alphabet. Makes me want to yank the phones out of their hands and send them back to school to learn how to communicate politely. YUK ! I have even learned to do the smiley face :) I have also tried to do a puppy face :3< or it could be called a kitty face. What has happened to ordinary conversation between people? I hope that it isn’t a lost art form.
