Every day I come in to work, I have the same old routine. I turn on my laptop, get some coffee, and the first thing I do is log on to Stracka :-). I have two monitors in my office, and Stracka will be on one monitor pretty much all day, while I use the other one to, you know, "work". How much time do you usually spend looking at Stracka at work? Has anyone's security department blocked Stracka from your network? I'm interested in hearing everyone else's stories.

I'd have put a picture of me, but I have to find on on a thumb drive first. I bought this computer in December, and my laptop, that has pretty much everything on it, won't stay on for more than about a minute or two at a time. (Ponders) Might just have have Pete-L send me the one he took of me writing some stuff when we went out... Being an IT guru, I have found that my "want" of being on the computer wanes over time; however, this is one site that I would like to get to at least a few times a day. I've only been a member about a month, and I can tell you that I am not addicted. I don't have a Facebook page, never will, never will look at Facebook. I have a Myspace page only because I wanted to look at pictures of an online girlfriend I had once, if you find my page, it'll be outdated, and you can tell that it's been a considerable amount of time since I've been on. One thing to note, I work in computers, and read work related blogs, but have never had any inclination to write a blog before. Once I was able to login and upload my weekend data, one of the first things I did, was write a blog. I generally only check at work if I receive a notification of something, and even then I don't use the main network. We have three different types of web filters on, and I don't want my boss learning about this site from the logs (working in the IT department, I already have privileged access, and I also have password override just in case). My fiance kind of gets upset when I login here, but then I am on here so infrequently, and for such a short period of time, I don't get her gripe. Here's to having fun. Don't worry, Jeremy- We already figured you weren't a hopeless addict seeing how you still have a freakin generic penguin as your profile pic! I hope you will join us on the dark side one day, but until then keep the wife happy :)

I love the site but hate to say I am avery speratic user of it when it comes to posting things. Like here in the forums or on a blog. I love the My Game portion of the site, tracking of all my stats and handicap is great for me. Tracking where I need improvement and where I am playing well is great. I do enjoy reading allot on the forums and it is very interesting to see peoples opinions and moans from time to time.

If thinking about what is going on here every day when I can't get on at work and to busy there anyway I guess I'm hhhhhooooooookkkkkkkkkkeeeeeeeeeeeeeddddddddddddddd......... Just don't seem to have much time to actually jump on here. Wished I did but I am usually working or in the barn working (and hitting balls during rest periods). Usually to tired to jump on here. lately. So you make the call obsessed maybe or not
