As a last resort, when things really get tough, you can go through your piles of old floppy disks and reformat them....

Hey Surreal... Paul Davies has some great reads on this...

(One of his most widely read is "The Mind of God")

That's R-E-A-L D-E-E-P Surreal!

I'm rarely bored . . . . . . as far as I know!

My mind is usually going in 50 directions at the same time! I can usually focus on what I'm immediately doing, but if I don't have anything to do, I let my mind go! Then I pick on one of the thoughts and focus on it! (Like up-grading my computers at home.)

When that fails, I tend to think about the fourth and fifth dimensions and their effects on the universe (in relationship to how it applies to quantum physics, of course)!

Harder

you could try getting the flu, then take all kinds of flu meds and sit at your desk. You kind of zone out starring at your monitor. You arent doing anything but you're not bored either. I know ive been doing it most all today and yesterday.

Thanks guys for the input....
I have to be cautious about the internet, too.
Too much time on it, can be trouble.
