Back on topic-
I find that when I try to multi-task, I accomplish less than I would if I did them consecutively, but indivitually.

I think this merrits the good ol' owl, towelie:

Hahahaha Sidoh.  I know of two people (myself included) that know of the owl in real life.  It's flippin' hilarious.  Last Saturday I was at my friend's house working on a class presentation on The Odyssey (we got to act :D).  My other friend that was in our group said something and the kid who's house we were at was like "O RLY?" and I laughed so hard.

Multitasking is bad for us now. Grrrrreat.. I believe concentrating on many things at once makes it harder to come back and focus on just one thing at a time, even when you want to.

I grew up with a controller in my hand, I kick ass at multitasking and doing both things good, or at least acceptably well.
