Kirk M – Spelunking? What has caving got to do with webcams?

John O – The theory these days is that you but something, plug it in and it works. [And if you believe that, you'll believe anything] Of course some people like to avoid the personal touch on a website?

Grandad,
great to see and hear you. I am trying to get the camera. Hopefully I can muster up enough brain cells and make it all work. Would be happy to video share, seems a little more personal.

Ah well, so much for trying for a freebie. I’ll have to start spelunking around Tiger Direct to see what they have to offer. Hopefully you’ll still be offering this lovely service by the time I finally get one hooked up.

Tricia – Me acting? Ha! I may take over from The Plank, when they realise my talents? I didn’t realise I had a webcam for quite a while, and never really had much use for it. Once you get used to it though, it’s quite handy.

No. You’re not blocked. If I wanted to block you, I’d mark you as spam.

Grandad – have you thought about going into acting or your own TV show? You have the voice for it alright. The Americans might not get your humour though and that could be a problem.

I’ve been thinking about getting one of those webcams so that the grandparents can take a peek at their gorgeous grandchildren now and then, but the thought of me being in front of it is too much to bear. Plus, I haven’t time to put on the makeup for the cameras… hee hee…

Tried to leave this comment yesterday, but I kept getting booted out of the system – have you set it up so that I can be eliminated?

Milton – I don’t go on about the book all the time, do I? This was totally disconnected, and a non-commercial enterprise.

Kirk M – Order one on the Interweb! That’s what I do.

RhodesTer – Seeing as you started this mayhem off, it’s right I suppose that you be the first. At least it shows that it works……….

JD – …….. some of the time.

Isn’t there anyone out there with the guts to try a video response?

Now Grandad, you know very well that I wouldn’t hesitate to jump right in and show my ugly mug to one and all. However, as I stated before–I don’t own a web cam. In fact I live better than 100 miles from the nearest place I could possibly get one.

If some kind soul would send me one for Christmas I’d be glad to make all sorts of video responses for everyone’s viewing pleasure.

Better break out the whiskey though…you’ll need it.

There was me thinking it was all in aid of your book launch and was enheartened by your ‘commercial’ response …. You know you will be paid for it…. and rightly so – *winks*
