Me too! I always watch the drama all the way through once I've started it, hence my journey to finish SOS. I'm like that with books as well. Once I start a book, even if it's almost painful to continue, I always finish it.

there's a concept in economics called opportunity cost (the value of forgone opportunities).....sometimes it's not worth finishing a crappy drama....trust me after you get a few dozen under your belt you serious start to assess opportunity costs more acutely.

If this is true, :rofl: NEW YORK (Reuters) - Ur dumped, Kevin Federline -- and you are now part of a growing club of spurned lovers who have been ditched by text message.

A video of Britney Spears' soon-to-be ex-husband apparently getting a text message informing him that the pop princess had filed for divorce became the most viewed item on the YouTube Internet site on Thursday, with more than 1 million hits.

The Web video shows Federline taping a reality television show and talking about Spears being his biggest fan -- until he gets a text message. Then he puts his head in his hands, rips off his microphone and disappears, returning 30 minutes later visibly upset.

LOL! I saw that vid on Entertainment Tonight... or was it Extra? It was purty sad.

GAH! I have this random yellow line on my monitor and it won't go away. It just appeared a few minutes ago when I was watching SOS. Turning the compy off and on didn't make it go away. Does anyone know what caused it? And how I can fix it?
