You get one star every time you skin your knuckles.

I reset to "0" on Monday.

If Vetteman Jack has 161,000 posts, he sure has wasted a big part of his life on the computer. At an average of 60 seconds a post, that translates into about 2,680 hours. That's about 67 forty hour weeks of work! If he'd have spent that time working on his car, just think of the results!
