A man and his 97 year old grandfather started a cool club: virtual hugs, lol.

It's a great story!

Those pesky oceans keep us from doing the weekly hug physically, 
                      so we do it virtually. Thousands of people around the world 
                      gather in front of computers to hug themselves and the people 
                      around them at a set time. Rather than a shared physical 
                      space, it is a shared mental space.</FONT>

                      Squeeze yourself in your car or in the supermarket. Hug
