104. Julie Joins Facebook
Julie was sitting in bed late at night
with her brand-new smartphone. Earlier that week, she
been visited by her children and grandchildren to
her 70th birthday, and had received the phone
a gift from her granddaughter Mary. Julie had
widowed for five years now. Since she lived
away from the rest of the family, Mary
the phone would be a good way for
to keep in touch and take up some
her time.
Up until then, Julie had never
been interested in catching up with modern technology,
finally owning her own smartphone made her feel
, and she decided to join Facebook since that
what she had noticed all the younger people
doing. However, when making her profile page, she
embarrassed to put up a picture of herself
she thought she looked much too wrinkly and
would want to talk to her. To remedy
, she downloaded a picture of a beautiful 20-something
old from Google, posted it under her name,
went to sleep.
The next morning, Julie woke
and enthusiastically logged into Facebook in hopes that
would have one or two new friends. She
not believe her eyes. Her inbox was full
friend requests from dozens and dozens of young
men that were complimenting her beauty and wanted
know all about her. Julie decided to accept
the best-looking ones and began chatting with them
and night, never letting them know that they
actually talking to a grandma. The next time
met up with Mary, she thanked her so
for the phone and remarked, "I haven't felt
young and pretty in years!" Mary was confused
asked, "Why?" Julie just gave a mischievous smile
changed the topic.
