Actually, to go off at a tangent, I'm just getting into GUIs via
wxPython. I've discovered there are distinct advantages having to
write endless lines of code just to get a piece of data. For example
on a Sunday it helps pass the time between the two sessions of the
Masters Snooker final being shown on TV.
Fair enough, but what do you do to pass the time _during_ Snooker
being shown on TV?
I can still remember the point in my first trip to the UK when I
accidentally stumbled across darts on TV. Given the endless variety
(and quantity) of pointless crap that people watch here in the US, I
can't really explain why I was so baffled and amused by darts on TV --
but I was.
Just no comparison, darts and snooker. This is excellent though

Now that we're way off on the tangent of what some people consider
boring and others don't, I'm really looking forward to watching
curling in the upcoming Olympics.
Curling, now there's another good reason to allow Scottish independance :)
