Am I too odd to cope anymore?

11 Replies

I have just been reading some of the blogs (sorry posts) and it seems to me that quite a lot has been written about age and computer literacy

Now I understand that at 68 I am one of the younger ones on this site.However even I have to do some brain training now and again.

I love Sudoko Crossroads Code puzzles and maths quizzes.

I really think that there are many things that one can do to keep the "little grey cells" active

Recently I had my IQ tested and it came out at 36.I am led to believe that that is borderline genious!

But even with all this behind me I still cannot conquer FACEBOOK.

So I must accept that I am too odd for all this technology and must return to my counting frame and Mr.Babbage.

Errors and Omissions Excepted

Poor odd Grog

Well, I didn't know what to say - if i said - Do you mean you're too OLD - not too ODD - that would have sounded rude. If I'd said Yes, you are too ODD that would have sounded rude! :(

So let me just assure you - with my Professor Rose academic cap on ;) - that you are NEITHER too old nor too odd!!!

We're all struggling, hun, you are not alone!!! Keep the faith! ;)

Love n hugs

Well, Grog, I'm 4 years younger (older?) than you and I'm computer literate, so age has nothing to do with it. I can't do Sudoku or maths puzzles - I once scored 4% in a maths exam! :-/ but love code puzzles - might have been handy during the war, but they didn't have the benefit of my expertise, unfortunately! :(

But don't you dare give up - you're doing really well, and on Facebook too, and, as Why says, us choc bars have to stick together - well, in this heatwave, don't think we've got a choice :-D

So come on, you can do it!!!! You ain't getting away so easily, we need our Grog on here! :)

Hugs

Rose

Sorry but I must be honest Mr. Grog.

You are both too old and too odd!
