The parentals chime in again

Mom sends:

The cartoon "Zits" is at it again.......

The parents and the teenage son are once more at dinner where the son says, "I have a good idea. If you two would start a blog, you could post all of the long, boring stories you would ordinarily tell at dinner. Then I could read them on my own time and we could eat dinner in peace."

Mom asks, "If we're not going to talk, why bother even eating together?"

From the son......."There's another good idea!"

Speed can be both good and bad. Today the empasis is on speed. In an emergency that's good. But, some other types of responses require thought.....more thought than the sender desires. An answer is wanted and it is wanted right now!! I, for one, want a little more time rather than giving a knee jerk response. That does not mean my answer will be any better, but I certainly will be more comfortable with what I have said.

So, when they say, "Give me that old time religion," I say, "Give me that old time newspaper." I know which sections I want to read and if I want to go back and read it again later, I will not have to search on the computer.
