Khalid, a dear nephew, was tinkering something with his dad just now. They were busy unzipping something. I asked what were they doing, but got a hint from Benny, my dear brother in law, that he was letting Khalid take a swing at it. So I let them be, for about two minutes :p
I hovered around again and found that they were trying to insert a subtitle file into an avi movie. That's cute (to me). I thought, how hard can it be.
5 minutes in Khalid's netbook got me frustrated, so I went back to my place (a scooch away, we live nearby) and did a simple search. It turned out that the process was more complex than I thought. Called Khalid back and explained that he needed to download two software.
A space, then the growing teenager grunted back at me, "Maybe we'll do it later." I sensed a disappointment in him. A little fire died. A curiosity died. I was sad.
