For those of you that know Holly, you know that she is an extremely strict parent. That's something I've always admired about her. When I told her that W was getting a laptop for Christmas it was one of those things. You know, where she says "I can't believe it, but I'm not saying anything else" and I just say "uh-huh". I knew what her reaction was going to be and if any person besides her said what she said, I would have told them to stick it.
Today one of those "Holly suggested you become friends with Casee" FB emails. Except in this case "Casee" was an eleven year old kid. Which I think is absurd. W has asked to have his own Facebook account and I just laughed. And promptly told him it wasn't going to happen. Thankfully it is one thing that Bill and I are in agreement on. The following discussion ensued via email.

Cripes. Bc that make sense. I know a lot of TG's friends have Facebook and even Myspace pages. And cell phones and laptops. It's sad.

W has a laptop. He asked for a Facebook account and I just laughed in his face.

I know he does. I still can't believe you bought him one.
I bet W will have a Facebook account before TG. And I bet it will be within the next year.

Good.
This post is marking the occasion. I say that by 1/25/11 TG will have a FB account and W won't. Holly says that W will have a FB before TG.
Now for the stakes. We need ideas. Make it good too, b/c I know I'm going to win.
