I don’t live under a rock. Granted, my husband and I choose not to have cable or satellite TV, his desk phone still has that curly connection thing called a “cord” in ancient Latin, and I’m allergic to FaceBook. We’re old school in many ways, and very comfortable with the label. Given our archaic life style, it may not come… Read More
