RE: The Thread!!!
Do you guys want to know one of the seriously good things about this thread and WiTP. Since I started back in mid May my TV watching has been cut by approximately 80 percent. This is good. Being around you guys requires thinking rather than vegetating.[:)]
For what we are about to receive, may we be truly thankful.

Got to multi task. I watch TV and play WiTP at the same time.
Even better, when playing the AI, I turn combat summeries off and run on my treadmill while the turns run and I watch TV too.
I work an average of 55 hours a week and have a 4.5 year old son. "Me" time is at a premium.

Oooh. Oooh. 4 year old. "Why?" You answer, then "why?" You answer again, then "Why?" Finally, "Because I said so."[:D]

I also use "Go ask your mommie, she knows everything"[:D]
If that doesn't work I give him the most scientific explanation possible until he gets fed up and goes to bother mom or the cat.
Cutest thing he ever did: He was about 3 and wanted someone to read him a book. Mom was busy and I told him I was busy helping mom but would read to him in a few minutes. He turns to the cat, who was sitting on the back of the couch, thrusts the book at her and says "Kitty, read to me!".
If I had it on tape I would win America's Funniest Videos just for being so cute.

Cats...ugh!
Spent the weekend in a house with a 300 lbs Mastiff that we were asked to take care of. Wonderful creature that. Lazy as sin, cant even be buggered to walk down the stairs to do his business. And the drool.......oh boy!

Must be. Our associates in Dutchistan just sent me a confusingly worded email. That means theyre either at work or sleep typing. I'll believe either.
