Obviously we're discriminated against and need to form a support group
and start lobbying Congress for recognition.  :-)

I never understood how people could do homework while watching TV or
listening to the radio.  My focus will be 100% on one of the other.  I
used to be able to tolerate chaos that is times when a lot of problems
hit at once.  Over the past few years I have grown unable to do that
any more.  For instance last summer my dad was out and the A/C broke.
He and I were out fixing it and while we were outside he started
thinking up other projects we could work on.  I finally said to him I
needed to focus on the A/C, get that fixed, and then we could go
measure the fence or taste the tree bark or whatever it was he wanted
to do next.  Yeah, that's problem solving.  WTH is wrong with the A/C.
 We did fix it, BTW.
