At dinner tonight I was telling a story that went a bit long. I knew I was losing the family’s attention but I pushed on. My six year old looked up at me, waited for a pause, and said:
“Dad, you sound like a 40 minute powerpoint.”
Geez…kids these days. Doesn’t she know that there are kids in Africa that would love to have my powerpoint presentation!

Don’t I know it? And my 4 year old couldn’t care LESS about my PowerPoints! He’s all, “Can we watch a Sesame Street Podcast now?”

Just because it is called “POWERpoint” doesn’t mean it is either powerful or pointed. How we find that out all too fast in this biz. We went to a “session” on writing Behavior Intervention Plans…. deadly boring, although all of it was on, yes, you guessed it… a PowerPoint.
AAArrrrgh!
