Don't worry, it happens to everyone.
So Sociology is basically the study of social behavior of people? Or something?

¦M¦

Pretty much something like that, but it involves different people's theories of it all, including Functionalist, Marxist, Feminist etc...
But it's still fun.

Hello. My aunt is here, and she wants/I want her to say a bit to you:
Hi. My is called Lizzie, and she's neurotic, so some people call her Neuro. I feel a bit shy. So i don't know what to say, but I do like chocolate as well and I once lay in a river with all my clothes on as part of a bet so that I could be given a .

Remote control?
Ummmmmm...???????????????????

We have a remote control for our computer at home. It's pretty basic. just a number keypad a mouse thingy and a few useless buttons.

Oh. I've never heard of a remoe control for a computer before! Neat idea! Kinda!


¦M¦

The problem is, hen you're too far away to use the mouse (therefore you use the remote) then you're too far away to see the screen properly. Anyway, the mouse works again now.

Yeah, that's definately a problem - quite an amusing problem though...
Oh good. I'm glad it works again!


¦M¦

There's still one problem with the mouse, it often likes to double click just when you only want it to single click.

My girlfriend has a remote control for her alarm clock, and my friend Ben has a remote controlled light switch...
Next thing you know, they'll have remote control toilets

<BB<

Wow!! In France we met a self-cleaning toilet... so they don't really need remote controls!

¦M¦

I saw those in France, everything was automatic, the flush went when you unlocked the door or something, the taps, soap and dryers were all automatic too. Another place had these toilet seat covers which sort of moved round to a clean bit when you pressed a button. it was in Futuroscope actually, in a pizza restaurant.

The one that we met was in a restaurant!

I've seen automatic hand washers. You know hand driers that sense when your hands are under (normally after you hit them) and then dry your hands, these spray water on your hands and then soap and then air.

But they tend to spray soap either after all the water has gone, and so dry the soap onto your hands instead of washing it off, or even worse, spray the soap after you have dried your hands.

I don't trust 'em.
