Old-Timers Are So Incredibly Blessed

Old-timers all remember long distance telephone calls that cost an arm-and-a-leg, and how we had to limit our time on these calls. We remember geeks like Steve Jobs (?) tricking ATT into free long distance phone calls. Now, we have FaceTime and other video-phone calls, unlimited talk, and all included with basic price of the device and monthly subscription or whatever it is.

I was watching the NDSU-Montana State football game until the start of the third quarter on the big-screen computer and then with a single click connected with my sister in Montana (on Flathead Lake) and then our daughter in Portland, OR, and Sophia got to say "hi" to her cousins there. I think this was one of the first times the twins, about two years old, have spent so much time on the phone with Sophia.

It really is amazing, and old-times really appreciate the technology / advances over the past several decades .
