bush uses the google on the internets

Remember when "regular guy" G.H.W. Bush went shopping at JC Penney's with some reporters, and he was flabbergasted by the bar code scanner at the cash register? That's what this clip reminded me of. Transcript:

HOST: I’m curious, have you ever googled anybody? Do you use Google?

BUSH: Occasionally. One of the things I’ve used on the Google is to pull up maps. It’s very interesting to see — I’ve forgot the name of the program — but you get the satellite, and you can — like, I kinda like to look at the ranch. It remind me of where I wanna be sometimes.

Just talking about it won't make it happen. Go! Go!

Insert predictable using-Google-Earth-to-search-for-WMDs joke here.
