 "Ah, research! When I think of the hours I spent at
 the library when I was your age..." Jeremy then says
 "Done!," turns around and asks "Wait...you went to a
 library?"

 I actually thought the strip's language was a little
 stilted when he asked for the URL. I thought for sure
 he would ask for the name of the article and just
 google it.*
