    Well done Gran!

    I bought my parents a PlayBook for Christmas and was slightly apprehensive about their tech knowledge. I wasn't confident that they would be able to use it as they had only just gotten used to their PC.

    I needn't have worried though, as they have both taken to it like a fish to water. We video chat regularly which has saved them a fortune in phone bills and allows them to see the kids. My mother loves the games and is apparently addicted to Bejeweled!

    They had a scare recently when it wouldn't charge and we're asking me how much it would cost to replace, something I never thought they would ever ask seeing how tight they usually are

    PlayBook is a great device that has been suffering under BlackBerry. They could make a success of it, but they refuse to even try. It should be a loss leader that helps ease customers into the BlackBerry experience, instead it is just an orphan that is lived by those who pick it up.

    For all those interested parties out there, us old people out here in the world are capable of a little more than sitting in a corner dribbling down our chins and peeing ourselves. (exclude me from that) . If we are given the chance we can even operate things as complex as a tin opener.

    See, that's why they invented glass keyboards - they wipe clean so much easier. As for peeing ourselves - well, that DEPENDS!

    Good to hear your granny like the PB! At this price point, PB is absolutely worth the money than other tablets on the market. I don't understand people being silly spending more money for those other over-priced tablets, such as e-readers, Samsung Galaxy Tabs or other Android tablets, not to mention the most over-priced iPads.

    The cat in ancient Egypt was a sacred and respected animal. It was in Egypt that cats were first domesticated more than 4000 years ago, and around 2000 BCE that the fully domesticated cat was brought into the houses of Egyptians.

    The ancient Egyptians took their cats on hunting trips instead of dogs, and statues of cats were placed outside the house to protect the inhabitants and to ward off evil spirits. This showed that the cat had become an integral part of ancient Egyptian family life.

    Cats were not only protected by almost every occupant of Egypt, but also by the law. So extreme in fact was the devoutness of the Egyptian culture to the cat, that if a human killed a feline, either intentionally or unintentionally, that human was sentenced to death.

    Laws were set that also forbade the exportation of cats, though more often than not, many were smuggled to the neighboring Mediterranean countries.

    The cat held a powerful spot in the history of Egypt. While she protected the land and its people, she also protected the mystique that was and is the cat in ancient Egypt.

    The art of training cats must have been lost with the demise of the Pharaohs and the flooding of Alexandria. There are no cats in this house. Only a six foot tall rodent.

    The only famous bush is the one Moses saw burning in Mount Horeb. I'm not sure how your gooseberry related to that burning bush. Are you fire ********?

    Yeah, that was a gooseberry bush. After we had to wander (Hey, no legs!) in the desert we got pretty dry. Spontaneous combustion but the humans thought otherwise. That's okay.

    From burning bush to gooseberry to tumbleweed, that's quite a stretch. I'm sure next you turn into coral reef when the red sea was unparted.
