I agree. Usually when I am bored I have nothing to do but post lengthy anecdotes on TnT that are tangential at best to the topic (see the Iraq War sub). Unfortunately I frequently have lengthy periods of time at work where I am just sitting around waiting for things to happen.

Here is my latest addiction: www.warfish.net. You can play Risk(tm) against total strangers on the internet. So that is kind of gratifying. But not nearly as gratifying as providing people the peace of mind that a well planned and constructed insurance policy offers. Make sure they get coverage in case of a malicious Ficus attack.

This reminds me of a Bonzo classic.  

Worthy of multiple listens if you can find it on the web, as is all their material.
