My 84 year old Russian mother-in-law cracks me up. This morning she asked me how to turn on the hot
plate in the kitchen. I asked her to show me what she meant. She led me to the kitchen where she had placed her little tea pot on my Ipad that was charging on the counter.

She loves to play the penny slots at a local casino here in Vegas. My wife suggested that she get her son to take her to the casino in Nanaimo where she lives. Her reply: "there's no action like Vegas action". :rofl:
