Ok, now I feel old. I am turning into my mother (like all women do) and looking to the youngsters (Producer Keith) to help me figure out this internet stuff!

Ok, it's not as bad as all that. I can't help but feel a little too connected, though. You can't escape! Everybody can throw an electronic leash on you - email, cell phone, text, IM, all of the above via wireless web...yikes! I kinda miss the days when you could "let your machine get it" and pretend you are so cool you aren't home to even hear the phone ring. As you read this, I am in the Dominican Republic and yet I am still connected to all of you back in Minneapolis/St. Paul. Kinda cool...kinda pathetic!

I gotta get back to the beach. There are a few new Dominican friends here that want to hear more about how I used to walk to school, in the middle of a blizzard, uphill (both ways) in my bare feet!

See you next week!
