Types of Gnomes

If a four year old can look at a very small piece of printed material and say it came from a computer, how long will it be before she notices no wires or cable where the Gnomes live? Of course when they do notice this they will probably tell me how technologically advanced "their" Gnomes are. Wireless no less! Which brings me to another point. According to Wil Huygen and Rien Poortvliet's Book GNOMES, there are six types of Gnomes: Woodland, Dune, Garden, Barn, House, and Siberian.

Do we now have to add another type of Gnome? A Technognome.

I can see him now. Wares NIKES. Pocket protector, Cell phone holster. Ear buds, Blinking Bluetooth Headset, etc, etc.

Don't forget the bluetooth headset for the phone blinking a bright, blue light every 15 seconds!

Thanks Bob, I added Bluetooth. The reason it wasn't there is that I didn't really know what it was. I've heard of it, but that is as far as I had gotten. Not a techno guy....I don't even have a cell phone, answering machine, and the list goes on. But my telephone isn't black (well one isn't).
