It is so amazing how dependent we can be on the internet. It’s our favorite saying in this house – look it up on wiki!

I haven’t seen an encyclopedia since I was in school! I’m not sure they would have the answer to Jack’s question! LOL!

Even with my slow slow dial up, I am grateful to have access to the internet. AND yes, I’m addicted!

Oh, you don’t even want to know what kind of breakdown I have when I can’t get online for whatever reason! And just imagine how excruciating it was for me when I had to go back to a *gasp* dial-up connection for about a year!

I’m with you, though, I think they stopped making encyclopedias. Besides, they’d be way too expensive anyway.

Out of curiosity, I googled “Encyclopedia Brittanica” and all I could find was an online version.

You might be in trouble Mindy.

i LOVE this! when Sweet Pea asks a question we don’t immediatly know the answer to (or can’t remember) she now immediately says….”can we google it?”
which leads me to believe we have a problem.
“Hi. My name is Amber and I rely on the internet to answer my childs questions”.

maybe we should look into those encyclopedia’s as well!

It’s crazy isnt it? Like the time I lost my cell phone for a couple of hours….nightmare. When I dont have internet access the only thing I notice missing is reading the blogs and I like paying my bills that way. I dont even know how much a stamp costs anymore.

Wow. I’m super glad you survived! I was only disconnected for a day and missed a freakin zombie apocalypse event on twitter and now my whole week is pretty much ruined. I don’t think I could survive longer than a day. I mean, really. People need to know what I’m doing, right? And that apartment in yoville isn’t going to take care of itself.

Encyclopedias. I remember those. It takes a lot of time to look things up. I’ll stick with the internet.

How did we survive without the Internet? I have no idea. Seriously. Jer and I are just big huge dummies around here. =)

Glad to hear it’s not just me! My daughter, in college, had a computer break down and you would have thought that the world had ended…..how on earth did we function before computers, haha
