I simply LOVE that one! It's really got me laughing!

^^ me too, so true :)

The innate knowledge about computers and PDA's isn't true. I don't have a clue >:}

Nah not the Pentium, it couldn't multichannel instructions and have poor branch prediction. Our brains are more like the cell processors of the PS3. :)

Sounds like you have a GREAT Doctor! Someone who really gets it! Lucky you!:D

lolz such a stretch... in a good way

Just described my life to a tee, how incredible!

While I may be networked to a PS3, my brain is still running on 2mb.

Also, yay overly long and complicated analogies! That sounds about as likely as Tom Sawyer doing quantum equations on the nature of hypertime while eating twinkies on the moon...or maybe not:confused:
