I do talk with them. I make my estimates based those conversations. Like anything else in humanity, it spans a range.

But this conversation illustrates the pitfalls of forums like this, where a single word can change perceptions. Had I said "talk with" rather than "talk to", it appears I would have provoked a completely different response from you.

(And yes, talk with would have been better usage.)

Spiffy.
I need cheat sheets to post.

Is there a smiley that gives the finger?

I've had the best time today listening to my online friend's smitten ramblings about the date he went on with my other online friend Saturday. I also turned in a relatively painless weekly assignment for school, made pot roast, finished my book, and took a nap. Now I'm sitting here thinking about how lucky I am to have a husband who spoils me rotten (he just went to get me a Diet Dr Pepper), and looking through the riches in Calibre to see what I'm reading next.

Thanks. I liked it too, without thinking it a great movie. I guess people's response is partly defined by how many similar movies they have watched in the last months.
Still, the Games are waay better.

Sure, it could be.

Some of these distractions tend to occur more often than others (depending on what I've been drinking).

Oh, look! A flittered garglemoth chasing a carnipod! [grabs garglemoth net and runs out of the room...]

Well, as Mark says, you just probably save yourself hours of pointless staring at animations
btw, here is what my avatar would look like, if it was a movie:

Today from the car coming back from the shops I saw a fun-splashy whale leaping, about 200m offshore. That was nice.
