    scored in Solitaire. I dare you to beat it ;) Configuration: One card draw, Standard scoring. -- Only in a world this shitty could you even try to say these were innocent people and keep a straight face.

Or how many times you have fancied your sister. Or how long you really lasted your first time? You know those things right? Well this is one of them. ;)

          second go.. my quickest is 57 secs. Windows 2000 makes it too easy as right click dumps the cards onto the card piles. BD

Quite the opposite I would say. The key is in the name of the game; Solitaire. I am just trying to say that boasting about a high score in Solitaire will not pull in the ladies or gain much respect except with other Solitaire addicts. To be frank it is seen as a sad activity, one best played in a dark room where no one else can see you playing. But that perception is only because I am a peer pressure driven fashion victim. :rolleyes: So never mind me. :)

Deep down though you want to whip that hand up to your forehead, do the universal Looser sign and send him a photo of it. It is wrong. It is terrible to think. He is not a looser. But damn, you are just itching to do it anyway. Still, at least your friend and Jörgen are enthusiastic about what they are doing, strange though it may be. More than can be said of some people who even do socially acceptable things unenthusiastically :)

Deep down though you want to whip that hand up to your forehead, do the universal Looser sign and send him a photo of it. It is wrong. It is terrible to think. He is not a looser. But damn, you are just itching to do it anyway. Still, at least your friend and Jörgen are enthusiastic about what they are doing, strange though it may be. More than can be said of some people who even do socially acceptable things unenthusiastically :)

                                          I've managed the 99 mine level once in my entire life. I hate it when you're stuck and have to guess! -- Only in a world this shitty could you even try to say these were innocent people and keep a straight face.
