A woman goes to the local  psychic  in hopes of 

       Grandma_stitches_2  

contacting her late  grandmother.  The  psychic's 

eyelids
 begin fluttering, her voice begins warbling, 


her hands float up above the table, and she begins 

moaning
.  Eventually, a coherent voice emanates, 


saying, "Granddaughter?  Are you there?"
 

  The customer, wide-eyed and on the edge of her 

seat, responds, "Grandmother?  Is that you?"
 

  "Yes granddaughter, it's me." 

  "It's really, really you, grandmother?", the woman 

repeats.
 

  "Yes, it's really me, granddaughter." 

  The woman looks puzzled,  "You're sure it's you, 

grandmother?"
 

  "Yes, granddaughter,  I'm sure it's me." 

  The woman  pauses  a moment, "Grandmother, 

I have just one question for you."
 

  "Anything, my child." 

  "Grandmother, when did you learn to speak English?"
