If this is your first visit, welcome! This site is devoted to my life experiences as a Filipino-American who immigrated from the Philippines to the United States in 1960. I came to the US as a graduate student when I was 26 years old. I am now in my mid-80's and thanks God for his blessings, I have four successful and professional children and six grandchildren here in the US. My wife and I had been enjoying the snow bird lifestyle between US and Philippines after my retirement from USFDA in 2002. Macrine(RIP),Me and my oldest son are the Intellectual migrants.

Technology Use Among Seniors



Recently, I started subscribing the New York Times on line. My enjoyment of the news summary everyday reminded me of how lucky I am when it comes to computers use among senior citizens;  specifically of the group I belong-the octogenarians. I  found that less than 2% of octogenarians avail themselves with the pleasure of the Internet and Social Media. Photo Credit above: Flickr.com
