>anyone want a forum to discuss what else they do while playing solitaire? This question was suggestion in earlier thread, it deserves a thread of its own. Often people play solitaire while doing other things, so what else do you do while you are playing solitaire? I sometimes play while I'm web surfing, playing a game while I wait for a web page to come up. |

I play solitaire (or Pretty Good MahJongg) while listening to the news on National Public Radio in the evening. I also sometimes play while eating on those days when a meal is delivered to my desk. (I can eat with my left hand, but it is hard to use my keyboard with a plate in the way.) |

I am a Univ of Iowa alum living in Florida. I play PGS 500 while I listen to Hawkeye football (too bad about the Orange Bowl!!) and basketball games on the Internet. |

Listening to tv-programs. But mostly just thinking about problems to solve from my work or my studies. Or, when I play on vacation in our RV, watching the scenery, seeing the tide rise, watching the sunset. Wow, I am looking forward to that. |

I watch tv sometimes and sometimes I watch ships go through the Panama Canal on my laptop while I play PGS on my husband's laptop. |

Never played a game that took up so much of my sleep-time, so how come it does work for you as a sleeping aid? |

Waking up in the morning with my good ol cup of coffee and one eye open I try to get my brain to start focusing for the day. At the end of the day after kids are in bed, I play while listening to my music or news. |

Klondike is one of the eaiser games, so I don't need to think while playing After about 15 or 20 games (20-30 minutes) I can hardly keep my eyes open. As long as I go right to bed then I can usually get to sleep. It's gotta be better than sleeping pills! I have 1946/4 on my first player ID and just started with a new name this year, 242/0 so far. |

I play Patience's Reward while installing new computers. There is so much "dead" time waiting for programs to install, then rebooting. I find playing makes the wait time go more quickly and keeps me from becoming "fidgety." |

everyone has their own opinions on what is easy and what is hard. my mother has a college degree in early childhood education and is currently a teacher's assistant at a middle school and SHE finds the 8th grade math difficult. |

Playing solitaires is one of my biggest pleasures. It's like meditation for me and I am trying to be in HERE and NOW. "Absorption is Happiness" - this is my credo. |

I start playing as soon as my husband turns the TV on to "American HotRod Chopper" or "Classic Tractor Calendar" ...and while I'm playing I just say "uh huh, uh-huh" whenever he says stuff like "Wow, honey, look at that!". |

I play goodsol while I'm procrastinating. Uhhhh... and it's pretty permanent in my tray, too. If you were thinking about hiring me, pretend you didn't see this.<g>
