    Do you have it?

    You know, you sit around and suddenly find your hand reaching for your release that isn't there. It's not dangling in your palm whether you sitting watching TV or driving or where ever?

    I love it. After only 4 days, I have it. I find myself trying to play with my release and it's not there. :cool: Tis the season!

    Rob, at work we let the little juvenile delinquents I work with use those tubing things to get a workout. I find myself drawing those tube things back and aiming it at the delinquents. :)

    Yes, I am guilty. I also find myself looking up into all the trees on campus thinking ,"thats a good tree" or look at how many acorns are on the ground.
