I guess it depends on the time-frame, Capn. During Olympic years or election years, I can't keep my eyes off those relatively rare events. Lately, it's been school, homework, school, homework, politics, school, homework. I'm one of those folks who do one thing to an extreme. If I have an inkling that I might want to get a dog, for instance, I start researching dogs until I can't find any more information on them. I may, ultimately, decide not to get one, and not look into dogs again until the fancy strikes me the NEXT time.Daughter #2 called today to discuss her boyfriend. It seems he's into "motivation" of late, and has a personality similar to mine. He's doing the readings, the tapes....the whole nine yards. She's more a "moderation" kindof person, so doesn't understand the syndrome. Her older sister is more like me. She ate peanut-butter and jelly sandwiches in elementary school EVERY day for lunch, and one day simply dropped them from her menu.
