    Bullshit. I told my wife I had a right to the 42-inch flatscreen. When she didn't talk to me for a week afterward, that was a privilege.

    So you're saying big screen TVs are a right and a privilege?

    Good point. For some reason, texting has always required my full attention. I can shave or get blown while concentrating on other things, but it befuddles me how people can text (if they don't have thumb memory like Buckweaver) or watch movies and completely disregard the road.

    But can you shave while being blown?

    Apparently, no. But there's more multitasking ahead! I'm about to find out if I can keep pressure on a wound while driving. Wish me luck!
