I know what your thinking this is not a update . But i do happen to take the odd technical call at my home which is unusual to say the least as i am not that technical. But a call came through the other day from a young lady who had got a problem with her computer. I asked her what the serial number was and she told me "I see you have an Aptiva" desktop unit. Before i could say another word, the caller shrieked and said she'd be right back. When she returned i said to her are you alright to which she replied "Had I realised you could see me, I never would have telephoned in my bathrobe."
Thank you Peaches that is so very true There was another time A caller, perplexed that his new desktop computer--the one that was supposed to do everything short of bringing on world peace - was doing nothing, cried out for help. No problem, I said. First, open a "window" to launch a specific program. The conversation continued, and the caller asked a few moments later if it might be all right to close the window. Why, I asked, the caller responded, it was getting very chilly.
My son James, 5, came screaming out of the bathroom to tell me he'd dropped his toothbrush in the toilet. So I fished it out and threw it in the garbage. James stood there thinking for a moment, then ran to my bathroom and came out with my toothbrush. He held it up and said with a charming little smile, "We better throw this one out too then, 'cause it fell in the toilet a few days ago.
One summer evening, during a violent thunderstorm, a mother was tucking her small boy into bed. She was about to turn off the light when he asked!!with a tremor in his voice, "Mommy, will you sleep with me tonight?"!!The mother smiled and gave him a reassuring hug. "I can't dear," she said, "I have to sleep with Daddy."A long silence was broken at last by a shaken little voice saying, "The big sissy."
