I Still Have VCR Brain
On "National VCR Day", I find myself realizing that although I no longer have a VCR, I still have what I think of as a VCR brain. I don't "record" shows on my DVR, I "tape" them. Is that true for you too? I can't help it because I had a VCR in my life much longer than I have had a DVR. So I'm a bit stuck in the past in that way but at least I don't call my tv the "idiot box" any more like I did when I was growing up.
I can only imagine the next incarnation of the DVR! Is Alexa going to take over everything and we'll just tell her what to "tape"? Oh wait, I think I'll have to start saying "record". I don't think I'm ready for Alexa and her magical technical powers. I want to hang onto the simpler days just a bit longer thanks.
