edutcher said...: You look at the title and you think, "Bomb".

In our house, the lack of a click would be followed by The Blonde saying, "Edwaaard".; 6/12/11, 5:38 AM

Lem Vibe Bandit said...: I dont hear a 'click' from the 30+ reporters trolling Palin's email either.

Here is some of the stuff they found so far.

The e-mails also reveal how Palin’s personal life often figured in her political one. In one e-mail from July 2008, she told a staffer, “Don’t let me forget to pick up my mom tomorrow after milk run comes into Juneau 3:00- ish I think.”

Really?; 6/12/11, 7:12 AM
michaele said...: What Deborah said, "Adorable".
Isn't it nice that when you get old old enough, befuddlement can seem endearing instead of annoying...esp. in limited quantities.; 6/12/11, 7:59 AM
Phil 314 said...: Well either they're healthy enough and self-confident enough to laugh at themselves by releasing this or their kids aren't above making fun of their parents on the Internet.

but at least they DON'T LOVE CATS; 6/12/11, 8:36 AM
Phil 314 said...: Chip;
Please explain the connection between Amy Winehouse and this older couple.

The video made me think of:

Grow old along with me!
The best is yet to be,
The last of life, for which the first was made:
Our times are in His hand
Who saith "A whole I planned,
Youth shows but half; trust God: see all, nor be afraid!"; 6/12/11, 8:45 AM
Phil 314 said...: And if you prefer a bit of irony; 6/12/11, 8:48 AM
Bayoneteer said...: If they have it set to video what click are they expecting to hear?; 6/12/11, 9:34 AM
Steve M. Galbraith said...: "Press any key, Mom."

"Where's the any key dear?"

That was cute.

It was surprising that the wife was behind the monitor and not the husband.

That's sorta' different.; 6/12/11, 10:28 AM
CatherineM said...: I got a kick out of that. I give them points for trying. My elderly parents just moved closer and finally have high speed an I can't wait to introduce my mom, who wants a laptop, to skype/google talk. My parents have not been served well by service men (your dryer vent needs to be upgraded, but I am not calling my manager, just dumping a dryer you paid for, and not hooking it up) and paying for high speed (or what they were told was) by verizon dsl and then not showing them so all they are using is dial up for AOL. OH, and still paying for AOL and Verizon. Shit like that makes me hit the roof. I can't tell you how much it sucks to be elderly and find out people have been taking advantage of your parents. Now they are near to me (rather than 2 days drive), my sister is only a few minutes a way, and my nephew is hooking them up with the technology. Soon they will be making silly videos like this - I can only hope!; 6/12/11, 5:48 PM
Wince said...: You get the feeling these two "clicked" a long, long time ago.; 6/12/11, 8:08 PM
shirley elizabeth said...: The follow-up video where they do hear the click is just as adorable. "Your 80th birthday!"; 6/13/11, 7:57 PM
