Physics and some sort of creative writing course, maybe acting too, heck any theater course. Sorry for you folks who regretted statistics. Was my dad your professor?

Re: Crayon on HDTV...

How long did it take him to color the tv? (Was it black and white before he got done?)

I love your kids - they are very creative.

Re: LTE 2.0

Sacred Stool! I had to read 12 pages of the LTE to get got up. Now I don't remember what I read last night so can't think of what to comment on. So will just announce my presence back on the LTE. Aloha! We're supposed to remember what we read on this thread? Shit Birds, Martha - I'm in trouble!

Re: What's your favorite board game?

No particular order - Jeopardy, Monopoly, Risk, Clue, Mousetrap, & Operation from my childhood. Candyland now - cuz it means you have kids around. Not sure if they qualify as board games: Hungry Hungry Hippo and Fleas on Fred - they both make me laugh.

Balderdash is fun also.

Re: Mother's Day - HELP

Hello - I need quick help. I am not good at buying gifts. Particularly for (adult) women. My wife is 35. She likes sports and "cool" stuff. Hard to buy for with respect to more girly things; mainly because she is very specific in her tastes. My mom is 67. She really doesn't do too much away from th...

Isn't there a Bret Favre drinking game? ... a Favre game would be fun too (my roommate is an NFL junkie). Maybe we should make one up... Putting on the thinking cap!
