Now I've killed the rest off...
From FGNonline.
A U.K. Home Office report has concluded that children who become addicted to games may actually be more intelligent than the average child. More inside.
The reports continued to explain that these children are more likely to go on to university and higher-ranking jobs. One British study found that computer "geeks" who had been hooked on games for at least five years were highly intelligent, motivated and achieving people, but often misunderstood.
A follow-up study five years later found that they generally had done well educationally, gone on to college and then into better than average jobs.
Superb. Now I have an excuse to play games instead of revising. ;0)

I heard prinny cant even catch a sand eel, Simon caught a Mullet by the way everyone at Port Erin, just in case no one had heard about it
Cameron has admitted he has only caught 3 mackerel this week
If a person aims to be a failure, and does this, are they a failure? Or are they a succes because they acheived what they wanted to?

Real Life is somewhat different to what people imagine. In truth, whichever set of problems face you in your circumstances, then life is about overcoming those problems.
Thus, people who seek happiness fail to find it, but those who face their problems and overcome them, or accept defeat and start again, find happiness by doing so.
Of course facing up to the problems of the world is more enjoyable if you are not alone. Fate is therefore a big part of my real life.

Motivated at what? I use computer games all the time, but I am also one of the laziest people at Uni, and it was the same at A-level.

Grix, I think you must be older than me in real life.
