Pictures vs Pics

Sunday, 29 November 2009

While speaking to a group of high school students recently, I told them that I used to work in a photo lab that developed pictures for all the Kmart stores in Genesee County before digital cameras. I told them our lab developed thousands of pictures per day. The response was a collective "aw" which I understood to mean that they were impressed by the shear number of pictures.

Over coffee this morning, I realized that they were probably amazed at how young I looked for my age. They probably don't remember the time before digital cameras and therefore were sure that I was at least 90 years old.

Now I'm thinking, great! I looked half my age.
