4Real Forums: Too funny

Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

The past couple of months, my husband has become enamored of Wikipedia. Why? He goes off on rabbit trails. Last month he did an extensive study of our local areas history, particularly the roads which lead him off on a study of our interstate highway systems in general. Last week something sparked his interest and he followed link after link beginning to study the history of the British royal families. Yesterday it was the history of Satan in literature. Now its a joke, I bring him some tea to his office and ask, "What rabbit trail are you on today?" and then he narrates! This the man who hated school. 4Real Learning is for everyone!

Maria,

This is too funny--my husband has been doing just the same thing lately! His current Wikipedia "rabbit trail" is early popes; over breakfast yesterday morning, he gave me a full-fledged narration!

That IS funny! Same here, but it isn't dh, it's me! And it is Google that gets me going. I will start off looking for one thing, then get sidetracked by something, keep going that direction, then end up somewhere entirely different!
I thought it was just my ADD, now I can say I was rabbit trailing!LOL!
