Okay, Matt... Ya got me again! ::grin:: Where's that snippet from? (It makes me feel a bit stoned!)

Neil: My partner and I made up a word for people like ourselves who use technology but don't like it, or grouse about it anyway. We call them "technomugeons". What do you think? ;`)

WYSIWYG: I like your additions! As far as that last one is concerned, I guess we're both "saved". LOL! Unless visting the occasional pagan site counts... 0.0

As far a cyberpets goes... I used to play with an A-life game/sim called "Creatures" (I have all three versions of the game). This weekend my partner brought home Black & White, which has one Creature you raise to help you play god (good or evil or anything in between--your choice) to a bunch of villagers. Started the game at 6pm looked at the clock after an absorbing amount of game play time went by feeding and teaching my creature how to cast spells, only to be dismayed to find it was 3:40 a.m.!! James and I were both astonished at how much time had passed! LOL! Good thing it was Sat night! ;`)

BTW, I forgot to say that I received the original list as a fWD email this morning. I have no idea where it originated...
