It seems to me that the OLF can be very addictive, so I was just wondering home many times a day my fellow OLF'ers visit the site?

I'm in the 8 or more catagory myself. I just wanted to make sure I wasn't developing some obsessive compulsive disorder,from the look of the results I'd say I'm perfectly normal at least for a luthier

I think part of the magic that makes the interenet special is that it breaks geographic boundaries. We are together from the perspective of our common bond of the love of building.... That is the binder...

So it is not surprising that this is more addictive than crack.

I am at least 20+ times a day. I have it up all day while I am at work. I just casually read, and post a little throughout the day.... It doesn't really eat up much of my day.

I guess he must, since as per that last posting you were up to 10,885 posts!

Brock--what do you do for a living? And are there any other jobs available there?

"Do"... make sure all my worker bees are busy doing billable work, make sure the clients are paying the bills, finding new work, and waiting for an occassional light bulb to pop on in my head that will give me a few new product ideas....

I'm definately in the "...or more" category. I find myself on here at all times of the day and night. I'd probably get a lot more guitars built if I would stay away from the keyboard.

Sir, stop. BACK AWAY FROM THE KEYBOARD. Get back to your shop and build.

Oh my gosh, I'm a civil servant. That makes you all my boss I'm definitely in the "more" category and I must admit that I went through withdrawal a week ago when my DSL was on the frits. Cindy will tell you that it wasn't pretty.

Not a problem, if they counted my unclaimed overtime (which they don't pay anyway) I could retire early. Actually, I post when everyone else is wandering to the coffee room to shoot the bull, much more productive. Don A38555.8337037037
