email from my daughter

I had three emails from my daughter this morning. All three were Tik Tok videos. What's that? It's like Youtube but for shorts.

I believe these were the first emails that The Girl has ever initiated, so I was pleased to see that the kids have relented on their "OK Grandpa" attitude toward email. They think the technology is for 20th Century fossils.

rand()m quote

Society is indeed a contract... [the state] is a partnership in all science; a partnership in all art; a partnership in every virtue, and in all perfection. As the ends of such a partnership cannot be obtained in many generations, it becomes a partnership not only between those who are living, but between those who are living, those who are dead, and those who are to be born.

—Edmund Burke
