I think I’ll just take a cue from my >daughter and talk until someone hurts me. heh... but I'd say that's part of your daughters charm as well as your own. You mentioned a quote one time from the movie "Strange Days", where the villan says "Paranoia is just reality on a finer scale". People like us think different, lot's of things in our life are shiney. We're ADHD commercials waiting to happen, but without the meds. Too much input bud. We're bound to drop a few of those packets (or want to). It's one of the things I enjoy about you, and probably why we can end a conversation with "my butt itches, gotta go" and an abrupt hangup. And nobody thinks twice about it. I was reading a book on memory. It said we receive approximately 10,000 inputs a seconds (sight, sound, touch) but our brain only processes 1-10% of that. We remember even less long term, unless it's done repetitively or if wiring is different in some folk. That's why keeping a blog is good IMO. It let's us keep some of those shiney things a little while longer. ~ stevo >Nah. I think I’ll just take a cue from my
