I had my first real time warp experience this past week. Nick's grandmother passed early Monday morning so we spent the middle of the week in Ottawa. During the viewing Ben and the other little kids got a little restless. Luckily the funeral home had a small tv with a built in VCR and a nice choice of movies in the downstairs area. Of course it was a little odd since I hadn't seen one of those in quite a few a years, but I haven't forgotten how to use it, except none of the videos were rewound and I couldn't find the rewind button. Then I noticed the VCR rewinder under the tv, been at least 10 years since I'd seen one of those. The punchline to this story was when I was taking the video out and putting it in the rewinder, one of Ben's cousins, she's six, looked at me and said "what are you doing?" with a confused look on her face.
Now I think I know how my parents felt about their eight tracks and beta disks.
