We watched the potato drop. Ok, we recorded it and watched it this morning.

lol, my 3 year old nephew did the same thing. by the time midnight rolled around he could barely keep his eyes open, but absolutely refused to say that he was tired. when he went to bed, he fell asleep almost before his head hit the pillow!

Oh, I guess my 3 year old granddaughter is just a party animal -

PS - I see @Dadhawk beat me to that idea -

well I went to the neighbors house and they weren't home so I left a note. Turns out that their house isn't the address number that's listed on GPS and their mailbox/house didn't have the number on it.

so long story short I had to go to 2 post offices and I was able to pick it up. I've really got to get better at slowing down and paying attention to details so I can save myself tons of trouble like this.

OK, most folks are back to work - the forum activity should pick up -

Thanks for the update.

Oh yes, especially when you get older. For example, when you change a password because you can't remember the old one and they ask you to enter your new password again -

Yes, funny that way isn't it! Most of the forums I frequent picked up over the holidays to the point that I wasn't able to keep up. So far today, those have been dead quiet. What's that say about "Twins" owners I wonder, hmmmmmm?

I get board at my desk. And I have become quite adapt to the ability to tune out a customer on the phone while they spend 10 minutes explaining something they did completely unrelated to the troubleshooting steps I gave them, but being able to pick up the conversation again after picking up the keywords I was looking for to continue.

That reminds me. I have a conference call today with a consultant with a PhD in metallurgy. Oh boy, the excitement

Ask him what he thinks about the recent advanced extractive metallurgy of indium.

That should give you a chance to respond to at least 6 posts -

Yep, that could open up a whole slew of speculation.
