Hi everyone

[Norm]

I am a relative newbie and also a Silver Surfer. My husband has Alzheimers and will eventually need to go into a Care Home so I am trying to make some money so that we can afford the best for him when it happens. I am a retired college lecturer so not stupid but some of the technicalities of IM seem to be eluding me. So here I am!

Norm,

Welcome to the forum. We look forward to your participation.

Welcome, Norm.; What is a "Silver Surfer"?

Hi Norm,

Welcome to 5 Star. Thanks for joining us.

IM can be really confusing at first so don't worry, we've all been there.

 

[Norm]

Thank you all for your welcome and by the way Minstrel a 'Silver Surfer' is someone over a certain age whose hair is silver and they surf the web!

 

[djbaxter]

How old do you have to be? Do you have action figures like Spiderman and Batman?

 

[Norm]

Depends on how old you are when your hair turns silver I suppose. A lady never tells her age though!

PS I don't personally have any action figures but as there are more and more of us perhaps someone will design one.

LOL David, you crack me up!

Well, it turns out there already is a Silver Surfer Action Figure - I thought I recognized the name.

Checked it out but it doesn't fit with my view of a silver surfer we are a much gentler bunch than that!

 

[djbaxter]

Yes, but he fights crime and world dominance.

Silver Surfer cartoons - and they ain't no action figures!

Sorry to make fun of old people. Heck I'm old!
I'm just lucky cuz I'm not silver yet (or even gray).
