Hi Platt, During the Primary someone suggested that I download onto my iPhone a game called 'My Town'. The Primary was not busy, so I did. In three days, I found myself, several times during the day, going to my iPhone to log into the game to collect monopoly style money and points trying to get to the next level. On day four I had a good laugh at myself and deleted the app from both my iTunes library and my iPhone. It was a good lesson.
