So, the host called by phone to our house, but your son-in-law knew nothing either, so he had to cell phone and leave a voice mail to Mom. So, since the grandson had already called home this morning, and mother PRYED the flight numbers out of him...she can EMAIL the info to the Europeans so they can get to Brussels on time to meet his flight. If he calls Mom from NYC on his layover, he will get an EARfull on his CELL PHONE! Mom has already tried to text msg him, but he must still be on the plane!<br>WHEW! Technology has advanced...kids have not. ;-) KateAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7035517739895851365.post-27677564503835616062006-04-27T15:26:00.000-07:002006-04-27T15:26:00.000-07:00Yes, this is a world of technology!

Believe me. He did, I just UN-abbreviated them when I wrote about them, because I forgot that you up to date folks would understand them all.

My kids fly anywhere at the drop of a hat (they didn't say that, I did). I too play word games with my daughters and chat while we are playing. Such fun! The most amazing thing to me was when we all had a private chat room and discussed an event we were planning. I am so glad I lived to see the old way of things and also the new.
