          :heehee: Such a trap, all this. Much better not to try, really. My son fell about laughing the other day when I unwisely suggested that he was 'dissing' me (disrespecting, for the uninitiated). He said no one in their right minds still used that one. I still think it's a bit odd that the word 'cool' is cool again. My generation though of it as distinctly uncool - strictly for elderly hippies.

                    The first thing my son used to say when he came in from work was 'Word' instead of Hello. Apparently it has something to do with the text translation on mobile phones. :)

                      What does 'text' translation mean - and what is a 'mobile phone'?

                      I sometimes move my phone around my office, from desk to computer table, but it's not very mobile as it's fairly heavy and the wire gets in the way. Do they come with wheels on them nowadays?
