Done it many times. Where I live we have group lock boxes for mail so you post the letter in a box attached to your mail box. I have taken my letters to be mailed, picked up my mail and forgot to drop off the stuff to be mailed many times.

Yes and Yes....along the same lines, have you ever called someone to ask them something and by the time they answer the phone, you've forgotten what you called to ask?
it's even worse when by the time they answer the phone, you've forgotten WHO you're calling.

I do that sometimes.. my uncle does that all the time. And at the worst hours. We got a call at 2 AM one day..
"Andrew!"
"Yeah, Uncle Tracey?"
"What's up?"
"Nothing. You?"
"Nothing."
"Why Did You Call?"
"Uh... I... Forget. My Bad. Bye."

LOL I've done this.....there are also times where I dial someones number and while the phone is ringing I get distrated by the TV or my kids and then I totally forget I'm on the phone at all. So when the person finally answers I'm all confused. ;D

On a teacher related story.
have you ever had a teacher who would drink HEAVILY in class. He once sent us up to get some stuff from one of the sports bags, we looked in the wrong bag and found ciggarettes and booze.. then it all made sense. The smell of Whiskey in his 'Coffee Mug' the longer the year went on the more we noticed. ;D

Or when you are reading the number and dial the one before or after it.
When I was in college, I had a meeting with my advisor. When I got there the secretary said that she called to say that appointment had to be changed and left a message on my machine. I looked at her and told her that I didn't have a machine. She looked up my number on the list and dialed the number either above or below it and sure enough, that was the number she had called. She told me that when she left the message, she said, "Cat, this is such-and-such". I told her that I should have called that number and said, "This is Cat. Did I get any messages?"

Regrettably, Lineker went to be England's all time goalscorer.
I did it in the Brisbane 4th Division, which is not quite at the same standard ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Yes when it wasn't the sort of film I thought it would be.

I have never walked out of a film, I just fall asleep if it is that bad.

Sometimes you just don't get around to swapping e-mail addresses with people. Sometimes you want to 'chat' with them and PM's are the quickest way to do this.

This way your e-mail still remains private...

Exactly. I PM a few different people here but only 3 know my e-mail addy. And one of them has probably lost it by now knowing him!

..and that's the point I'm implying - people are quite prepared to swap goss' via the pm system here but when it comes to using their (private) email that's possibly (for some) a step too far.  ;D ;D ;D

Because you can choose to ignore people here if they get annoying. Say if you'd misread someone's personality and in reality they're a bit of a stalker. It's really hard to do something about that once they have your personal e-mail address.

Hmm but the same people have pm'd each other for months/years - how do you explain that one then Karen?ÂÂ
Is it just convenience do you think?

Once. It was a movie called "Don't go into the woods" and the recomendation is "Don't go to see it". It was so bad I had never seen it on video/t.v. or anywhere else after the theatrical release. It might be a movie for Mystery Theatre 3000. :D ;D

It's more convenient to use the 'private messaging' system. Instead of having two things up on screen at once after typing your user and password in (how long does it take to get into Yahoo? ::)), you only have the forum site up instead. :)

I was so tempted to walk out on the film 'Spawn' when it was released about 6 or 7 years ago. It was just mindless pants.

OH GOD!!!! I think I've seen that :o My friend and I watched it and "Don't Open the Door" one night :P
The only movie I've ever walked out on was "Altered States" when I was 9 or something....we had gone to see 9 to 5 and it was sold out so we went to see that and it freaked the crap out of me :o
I am surprised that someone has even HEARD of it but to have SEEN it?? So, you know what I am talking about.
