Tried it. Still didn't work. I guess that my brain isn't set up for multitasking.

I cringe during those rare times when I call a double foul. I'm thinking "Blue 22, White 33" all the way to the table, afraid that I'll end up reporting "Blue 33, White 22". It's just something that is not properly hardwired into my brain.

I'm on way way to the store to buy a pack of gum. On the way back I'm going to try to chew the gum, and walk, at the same time. Wish me luck.
