You sound like me. I may buy a laptop to keep up with news when we travel.
Right now my trophy wife says "No"!
However, yesterday was another example of how FR is the real news. She wanted to know the high lights of the FR thread.
I almost grabbed the laptop when we were packing up the car, but I thought, "naw, nothing's going to happen." On the way over, I listened to music, then the Packers game (sulk), and once we got there, we watched the game, ate, then watched a kid's movie. If I'd had the laptop along, I could've logged on to FR just for a little bit--oh, who am I kidding--it would've been for a helluva long time....
I'll never make that mistake again--the laptop comes along.
