Did you see any space aliens there? Or even that big five note Moog synthesizer?

Oh, you mean Devil's Tower, not the cement post in Indiana.

What we actually saw was prairie dogs, which were very cute.

You know it was really a big bear chasing some girls and the gods let them be saved by having the rock they were on grow and grow and the bear slid down and left claw marks on the rock, right? There weren't any aliens or mashed potatoes in that story at all.

Same here. What I know worthwhile would fill a thimble, stupid useless knowledge would reach to the stars. :lol:

I think there is a number you can call to shut off at least some of that.

It may not work since you live in Mexico, but I think it does help some.
National Do Not Call registry - you can google that....
To add your number to the Registry you can call 888-382-1222 from the ... Call Registry gives you a choice about whether to receive telemarketing calls at home.

5. I have a tendency to make lists and then lose them before I accomplish what was on them
6. I stay up too late when I should be working

I gave up on to do lists, they never worked for me. I tend to make shopping lists and then forget them.

7. I am obsessed with making lists, it makes me feel organized and I get such a kick out of crossing things off

Once when I was bored, I made a list of all my DVD's and video tapes. Wasnt much point to it, shortly after I got rid of most of them.
