Chula: Amma, tell me about Lebanon.
Me: Errr…Lebanon?
Chula: I want to know about Lebanon.
Me: Okay, why do you want to know about Lebanon?
Chula: Because, I don’t know about Lebanon. That is why I want to know about it.
(Told with a sigh, eyes rolling, hand shaking and intonation as if explaining it to Rainman)
Me: But I don’t know anything about Lebanon
Chula: Googal it amma.
Me: What it?
Chula: Googal it.
Me: What is google Chula?
Chula: It is something that lives in our computer and when we ask a question it tells us an answer.
So we know about Googal, inspite of not introducing Googal formally.

UTBT SAYS: Boss, she is already treating us like Rainman. We are just a tool to get her to googal. Soon we will be outdated, replaced, cast aside.
LOL! Googal baba ki jai? Maybe not 😛
UTBT SAYS: May be not is my current thought. I personally get over whelmed with information over load. Google is creating that trend, ushering the next generation in to an era of information garbage that they have to sort to get to the real data.
