Guest Post #3: Skool of Life "Reflections and Revelations from Christmas' Past"

by Jenny McCoy on November 24, 2009

Despite the 87%  parallel between my posts and outer space, I was able to convince yet another legitimate web site owner to let me type something up for his Internet space.

Go check out my Guest Post on The Skool of Life: “Reflections and Revelations from Christmas’ Past (or Why You Should Help Your Parents Figure Out the Internet). This site is one of the latest I’ve quickly added as a site to read daily.

Also, I recently had the opportunity to chat with Srini on Skype about my experiences during my first six months of blogging, my Twitter philosophy and whatever else got mixed in. The recording of our conversation will be featured this week as the latest interview in his “Interviews with Up and Coming Bloggers” series.

I’m an up and coming blogger? I know, I know. It’s confusing. Does this mean I can start selling t-shirts faster than Cafe Press can print them?

Hey Jenny,

Thanks for the guest post. I’ve got the interview setup to run tomorrow. If you start selling t-shirts faster than Cafe Press can print them, then you should send me a percentage of the proceeds ;) .

(i posted this on the guest post link…never got approved;)

Jenny,

As always, your posts continue to amuse and intrigue me.

With my parents and older relatives now on facebook, (My 75 year old grandmother has a facebook page, and posts regularly) (who knew a senior center could be so interesting…) (I’m actually shocked she doesn’t live in the villages!) I’ve found myself monitoring what i do and don’t post on my wall. Funny thing is, my parents seem to throw caution to the wind when it comes to their wall posts. Let me tell you, there are some things I DIDN’T need to know about my parents! Yay for teaching my parents about the interwebs!

Keep up the Good Work!

Adam, thanks so much! Always good to hear from people who enjoy my posts (beyond my group of 5 or 6 close friends who are obligated to cheer me on).

That’s funny.. I share Facebook with my dad and a cousin messaged me a couple months after he joined and said, “After 20+ years of visiting at family reunions, I’ve learned more about your dad in 2 months on Facebook..” So I guess you get the links to PG-13 and R-rated jokes that we’re now shocked to see our parents (and grandparents) think are funny? How come they think those are funny but don’t enjoy our bar stories? Damn situational ethics!

Thanks again for stopping by!
