Hell Freezes Over, or, How My Mom Learned to Use a Computer
When I was in elementary school, I used to get called down to the principal's office. Why? My mom would call the school needing help with Microsoft Word. I can't even imagine which computer we might have had in the house at the time, but there I was, all of 12 or 13, helping my mom with with her word processing.
So imagine my surprise/mortification/moral dilemma of "is this the first comment I delete from my blog?" when I found my mom commenting on my blog.
Color me stunned.
Comments
she uses technology selectively. IM, but no text messaging. email, but no reading the paper online. apparently we can add commenting on blogs to the "do" category.

congrats to mother shafrir...if my mom learned how to use a computer, my cell phone bill would be halved and I wouldn't have to cut myself to relieve my frustration and angst.
And Sug, what the hell were you doing in elementary school at 13? Way off on the math there bro. I was in 9th grade at 13. but i'm brilliant, so...
