I have a small "cool" factor in that I try to keep up with things in which my young nieces and nephews are interested. I may not like the music they listen to, but I try to at least know the names of the performers. :)
Just luv yore vids of Polly'ies....:) ...There was one that use to sit outside a pet shop in west London years ago when I was small .....it was a Cockatoo too ,pure white and was huge if I remember rightly. :)
Settles what? You aren't going to roll over and play dead that quickly, are you? Please do not take offense Don. I mean no judgement or harm to your granddaughter's opinion and vote. In fact, I also think you are very Cool and I'm not your granddaughter nor did you pay me.
However, I think Element has some elements to put into the fire, too. Minding his manners, it seems, like a good gent would, but he does have some pretty cool tricks up his sleeve and we all already know, I think Element is awesome. So, my vote is for both, but, as far as your granddaughters, they may not agree.
There is one thing both your granddaughters and I agree on. There is not way that we can foresee in either of you becoming Cantankerous old men. You both are way too cool for that scenario. :) :)
