By all means, please do; as I mentioned above, attribution appreciated
(which
ideally would be in the form:

    by Mark Hartman; check out http://www.mymacguy.com  )

I find that it's easiest to teach intelligent yet uninformed people by
analogy, since giving them the information attached to something they're
already familiar with lets them use it immediately, so I tend to use
analogy a lot.

Especially when what you're teaching about was consciously DESIGNED that
way...  :)
