      The multitasking thing is so bullkrap. It just doesn't seem possible to do 2 things well at the same time. Joel Spolsky had a long whinge about it on his site a while back.

                Wow, I was surprised that someone from Kelowna is on CP (I've lived all over the Okanagan), now there's someone else on the Island here? :omg: I'm in Nanaimo, where are you? I'll be jealous if you live in Victoria. I lived there when I was young and I really want to move back. _____________________ "So in the interests of survival, they trained themselves to be agreeing machines instead of thinking machines.

                  Well, be jealous then. ;P I'm from Victoria, but I'm not living there right now. Going to school over in Kitchener-Waterloo, and now I'm working in Ottawa. But I still get to go home to Victoria once in a while (but not often enough!). :(

Oh, uhh, sorry. I'm still working under the grave misunderstanding that this isn't 'normal'. My most recent priority list count: Priority 1: 9,392 items (9,931 due yesterday, one due now) Priority 2: Priority 3: No further categories...
