Technology does not Jane scare

Twitter, you-tube or FourSquare,

She is plugged in all the way,

She is wired for work and play.

First the gameboy, then shuffle podcast

With new toys she has a blast

Until Facebook stopped her dead in he tracks

As she fretted over privacy cracks.

Now she has overcome her fear

She has kicked her i-drive into a higher gear.

Her most recent infatuation

Is with a social media creation

That keeps track of her location

Across the whole nation.

She is already mayor of the local drugstore,

But she thinks big, wants more!

Sint is giving a helping hand

So you can claim in digi-land

The top tech-savvy spot

Of the baby-boomer lot.

1: “I think we need to move past analysis and start on the next steps.”

2: “Yeah, I agree.”

1: “Even if they aren’t the long term next steps, we need to think about the first logical next steps.”

[pause]

2: “It seems like we should think about where we want to go and then think about how to get there.”

1: “Yeah, that’s what I was talking about earlier when I was talking about the grand vision.”

1. Cars don’t signal or wait for a break when merging. They just throw themselves into the fray and hope everyone else moves. Which they do.
2. Most food comes with sliced limes on the side.
3. Angry Birds is extremely popular here. I saw Angry Birds candles, bouncy balls, t-shirts, plush toys, calendars, and large wafers. I think the wafers were edible, but they looked questionable.
4. Houses, clothes, and food often come in colors that would never happen in nature.
5. Many women’s shirts have sparkly bits on them.
6. Many places have completely unpronounceable Aztec names, with a silly number of “L”s.
7. There is incredible live music everywhere.
8. When you look like you’re about to park, someone will appear out of nowhere to show you how to park for 5 pesos.
9. Most public bathrooms have sinks with faucets that turn on when you push up on the faucet itself. Which is terrible because your hand is then blocking the water, so you just spray water all over yourself.
10. The markets have stalls selling fruit salads with piles of whipped cream and wafers on top. It’s like an ice cream sundae with fruit instead of ice cream.

Me: “I’m moving!”

Rob: “You’ll need to bring everything with you to your new apartment.”

Me: “Thanks for the tip!”

Rob: “I’ve moved before.”
