So, I'm a geek.  I know it, my wife knows it, hell, even our dog knows it.  It goes without saying then that I know more about computers than non-technical people (my family, as I like to call them).  Trying to walk my mom thru a simple task involving anything computer related, is like pulling teeth... my own teeth... with out anesthesia!  

Here's a snippet from a typical conversation with my mother:

Me:	"Now copy the file and paste it to your 'My Documents' folder."
Mom:	"How do I do that?"
Me:	"Right click the file and select 'Copy'."
Mom:	"Where's the file?"
Me:	"You just saved it from your Create-a-card program, where did you save it?"
Mom:	"To the Create-a-card program."
Me:	"No, you can't save it to a program, you saved it to your hard drive.  Where did you save it to on your hard drive?"
Mom:	"Where is that?"

At this point, blood starts dripping from my ears and I usually have to bite down on something hard to keep myself from swallowing my own tongue. But I digress.

So I get this email from my father a few minutes ago and I just read the first line and had to laugh, here's the part of that line that I thought was so funny:

"... I moved these files to my local C drive (Whatever that is?), then..."

Now, the geeks out there, even most non-geeks, get what is humorous about this.  My family on the other hand, would read this and stare blankly at it trying to find the subtle humor... most likely never getting it.  

Don't get me wrong, my family isn't that bad but believe me, I DO NOT enjoy being the family geek sometimes because unlike Tom Smykowski of Office Space; I am NOT a people person.
