I will be the first to admit that I am an old dog – an arthritic, grey-haired old dog that could use a couple of extra notches punched into his belt, and yes – I do drool for no apparent reason throughout the day..

However, I am pleased to report that despite dire predictions to the contrary, you CAN teach an old dog new tricks – I am currently reading my first-ever digital book!

Last week, I loaded a free book-reader program onto my i-Phone, then took advantage of downloading a few free e-books, or “digi-flippers”, as I am trying to make them catch on as.

Pretty cool stuff – even on a screen as small as this wee cell phone has, it’s a pretty easy read.

Not that I want to walk away from the real, live page-flippers yet, but thanks to digital technology…I remain cool as a refrigerated cucumber!

This must be how The Fonz felt…

Chow for now!!
