As an uncle of an 18-year-old I can’t help but be relieved that her laptop is out of commission. She has a good head on her shoulders but you never know what your friends will post, or tag, her in.
During this holiday season be smart about your social “digital” image. I’m not saying to stay in or not have a celebratory drink, but just keep in mind that there are cameras everywhere and if you are out in public showing a side of you that isn’t flattering be prepared for it to end up on the Internet.
Hopefully, if it happens it’s just a picture instead of a mug shot.
Happy clicking,
Keith

Quotes:
Santa: What would you like for Christmas, young man? Jesse: A toy dragon, a tackle box and a John Deere tractor. Santa: A dragon? Jesse: No, a TOY dragon. Real dragons spit fire at me.
Dear Santa, Why am I doing your job?
If a bill collector calls give the phone to a 5 year old and tell them its santa!!!!
Ugh… The Best Buy commercials against Santa bug me. Where is the whacked out Target lady?!
