As a public service, things to do while FOTH
Rain | Monday, August 26, 2002 - 10:13 am     Although going to FOTH is at best merely annoying, as a public service lets share our best strategies to make the best of it. What are your favorite methods for filling in those minutes (and somtimes hours) of FOTH? Here are my favorites: 1) checking to see if any lint is in my bellybutton. 2) experimenting with how long I can stare at a computer screen without blinking. 3) writing angst filled emails to CBS about the unfairness of FOTH. |

Kit66 | Monday, August 26, 2002 - 11:27 am     Pound out the butt groove in my computer chair... |
Marcieb | Monday, August 26, 2002 - 11:31 am     This is when laundry gets done in my house. The fact that clean stuff sits in the dryer for days without getting folded only adds to our household's current look of "fashionably wrinkled." |
Maesin | Monday, August 26, 2002 - 11:36 am     Get up grab a coke, grab a muchie, pet the dogs, give some of muchie to the dogs, drop everything off by the computer, and see the FOTH still on. Go to the rest room, see a real live person, engage in conversation, and go back to computer to see FOTH still on. Run upstairs, fold some clothes, grab new basket of dirty clothes, check the computer, FOTH is still on. Get clothes into washing machine, wrestle sock away from puppy, hear FOTH as passing by to return laundry basket, look around, put a few more pieces into the puzzle that has collected dust since the beginning of BB3, play with dogs while slowly making way back to the computer. FOTH is no longer on, missed huge strategy/fight/plot twist by mere seconds. Spend rest of day trying to figure out what the heck just happened.

Ginger1218 | Monday, August 26, 2002 - 11:39 am     conceive a child, give birth, raise it, and by the time he/she is out of college, perhaps FOTH will be gone. |
Silksmoke | Monday, August 26, 2002 - 11:42 am     lol Maesin, we live in a parallel universe |
Fix2scream | Monday, August 26, 2002 - 03:05 pm     Make phone calls to all the people you have been avoiding so you won't miss live feeds. This is a sure way to make the FOTH go away. The person answers the phone and the feeds come back and then you have to think of a quick way to hang up. |

Adorable67 | Monday, August 26, 2002 - 04:03 pm     You all have WAY TOO MUCH TIME in your computer chair.....(dying laughing!!!) |
Bernie | Monday, August 26, 2002 - 06:18 pm     Well, today, I thoroughly cleaned and disinfected my computer keyboard, monitor, and surrounding area and accessories with hydrogen peroxide and q-tips, while enjoying the lilting refrain of FOTH. Now my fingers don't stick all the time when I type....and I won't pass on the salmonella which lurked between the keys.  |
Tabbyking | Monday, August 26, 2002 - 07:31 pm     i would use that time to pick my nose and wipe it on the couch, use the bathroom and not wash my hands, pcik my gnarly toes, cough like a maniac while preparing a dinner salad, and, oh yeah, urinate in the spa. you know, all the houseguest from hell stuff! |
Zeyna | Monday, August 26, 2002 - 07:36 pm     Stare at the screen until feeds are back on |
