Too busy for bingo

While checking in at Keith Povall's Sturdy Soapbox, I spotted a mention and link to Millie Garfield, one of the Internet's oldest bloggers (82), according to something called The Ageless Project. Millie was featured in a piece on ABC, pecking away on her Mac, blogging, making videos and doing the online thing. She came across very sharp.

Millie has a second blog called "I Can't Open It" (dot com) which has a bunch of videos of products that are damn near impossible to open. Now, before you start any of that "you're just getting old" shit, just stop.

I bought a couple of ethernet cables this week and they came sealed in those clear, hard plastic shells. I went at these bastards with a carpet knife (the kind they use to topple sky scrapers) and it still took me 15 minutes to slice my way in. You might get in with a pair of tin snips or a cutting torch, but scissors? Fuhgetaboutit!

I plan to be right here, tapping away, when I'm eighty-two. Blog on, Millie!

Thanks for the mention. Millie is sure one of the darlings of the internet.
