Bloke just read your post... he feels that it would be no worries to speak to the person next to him, although there may be a HIGH number of empty seats in between.  At least you didn't say the Dodgers (Manny who?)

Try again. :)

Thanks again for Manny.  Now why was it you let him get away?  He has totally energized the Dodgers.  I am quite sure Torre is breathing a sigh of relief.  Again, why did you trade him?  Magic beans or something like that?  You are fortunate to have the Celtics.  Remember , when you are lamenting Manny, I still have to put up with the Clippers and the LA Kobes.

Lori -

we do listen, but you keep forgetting that most of us are half deaf - so naturally we only hear half of what you say ;D

Oh, that's what I'm doing wrong.

Then it would appear that my kids and husband must be deaf in one ear, since they only hear half of what I say also.  Guess I'll have to talk LOUDER!!!

Hey there everyone!

I have another question since this thread was about commonality & AN's...   

I noticed (before I knew about my AN), that I had problems with some video games...they made me "dizzy."   Especially first person shooter games.

Anyone else experience this?

Gary,

I have NEVER been good at video games!  I always blamed it on poor eye/hand coordination, but I think it might have been more like poor brain/hand coordination!

I'm going to blame that on the AN too!

Gary -

I never thought about a connection between dizziness and video games, but since you ask, I've experienced this too.

Games that have a "virtual" element to them - where you feel like you personally are walking through a maze always made me dizzy and nauseaus.  There was one - maybe Tomb Raider ? - that especially gave me this feeling, but I never though to attribute to my (at that time) undiagnosed AN. 

Interesting question.
