A Look on a Modern Day Mom
What does the word "Mom", "Mother" bring into your head? First thoughts? Mine is a bit American style vision - a woman, mid age, wearing a kitchen apron, with a cooking glove on one hand and holding a glass of lemonade in the other. Brown hair, no glasses, no makeup. This has a lot to do with my mother, but it also differs a lot. You see - my mother is a businesswoman. She helps my dad run a company. This tends to interfere with many household chores which need doing. I wonder - what would my kids see in me when they grow up? What expectations would they have of me and would I meet them?

How to Clean Your Mice
Many people have switched from having a pet, to look after and have fun with, towards having a PC and looking after it, instead. This may sound like something from a science fiction book, or so dumb, that it's not worth saying, but seriously – we compare human health issues with a computer hardware issue, we compare our brain, a living one with a mechanical part of the computer, which is the hard drive.
