    Well as most of you know I injured myself at work yesterday and my loving organization has forced me to take a long leave (not that I am complaining about this) but its day one I am bore already. So tell me what all things I can do to kill times (Please do include any kind of violent suggestion). I am peace loving person so kill yourself, jump of the Cliff, Kick the dogs ass(well do not mind doing that I hate that dog) are not welcome.

    Hi CS2011, Sorry to hear about your burn ! Maybe this "forced vacation" will actually give you some quality time to think about what's of real value to you. In my own life, at times, there have been what I perceived as "involuntary down-times," but often my perceptions changed if I allowed myself to "sit still," to come to a state of "profound rest," during those periods. Yes, easy to say, and more difficult to find than the murderer who killed time yesterday. to your health, best, Bill

      Make a better mousetrap, solve world hunger, formulate the Unified Field Theory, cure cancer, breed, watch a video, write a book, cook a meal, gardening, sleep, get drunk, play golf, visit relatives, look for a better job, surf the net, re-arrange your record collection, become a private investigator, pick up litter around your area. When you have done all these, come back for some more tasks.

      Now that is a suggestion that should not be given lightly to very many people in the world. Are you sure it's a good idea, Dave? ;P

            This could be a new feature. When a question gets downvoted enough, the CP goon squad is automatically sent to the guy who asked the question.

                You need to find a website, somewhere where a lot of techies go that you can put tyour own content. A sort of project for publishing stuff about coding. :sigh: I wish there was such a place...

                        Fill in the gap :) As you said earlier there are a few things you need to cover up for this new responsibility, and accident happened because of the same. IMHO this is a great opportunity to cover up :D

                                          Well as most of you know I injured myself at work yesterday and my loving organization has forced me to take a long leave (not that I am complaining about this) but its day one I am bore already. So tell me what all things I can do to kill times (Please do include any kind of violent suggestion). I am peace loving person so kill yourself, jump of the Cliff, Kick the dogs ass(well do not mind doing that I hate that dog) are not welcome.
