Haha, I have to share some funny story which happened to me yesterday: I decided to introduce my elderly mother to the magic of the Internet. Our first move was to access the popular Ask Jeeves website, and I told her it could answer any question she had. My mom was very skeptical until I said, “It’s true, Mom. Think of something to ask it.” As I sat with fingers poised over the keyboard, she thought a minute, then responded, “How is Aunt Helen feeling?”
