why should a woman bear a son?

So that, fifty years later, he can show her how to operate electronic equipment.

The woods are full of 'em.

  1. All right, maybe I need to explain this one.

    I've been helping my own mother with computer problems for a long time now. Recently, for instance, I rebooted her printer, which had gone catatonic in a memory overload. This is the sort of wizardry level at which I operate.

    Recently, at her suggestion, I burned a CD for a friend and contemporary of hers who was interested in some of the music I'd been posting lately. So this evening, this woman phoned to thank me for the CD. And tomorrow, she said, her son is coming over to show her how to play it.

    Oy.
