Long Distance is the next best thing to being there...

Can I just say that "SKYPE" (free), is like the coolest thing since sliced bread.  Last night the whole family crowded around the computer (even the dogs) to chat with Uncle Nix all the way in China.  I know some of you have experienced this, but it was our first "Long Distance ~ Over Seas" skype (free) chat, and it was so exciting. 

The last time I remember doing that was in the Mid 1970's when my brother David would call from Germany, while he was stationed there.  We only had 3 phones in the house, so everyone would scramble through the house to get to one, just so they could hear his voice and be apart of the conversation.  

With skype (free), Nix was able to see all of us at the same time.  It was like being one of the Jetson's.  Wow, technology is something, isn't it?
