Yah, you can get magnifying attachments for glasses as well as headsets (e.g. Optivisor) I bought one of my own recently as the ol\' eyes are going for real closeup detail work... it\'s all downhill from your 30s :D

Or did you mean an actual magnifying glass with a handle? :)

I don\'t use one of those, but I do wear magnifying reading glasses when I paint. The eyes get old, the vision gets weird - now I can only see a little spot about an inch from my nose clearly without some kind of corrective lenses. lol

As for the movie - you couldn\'t pay me enough to see it.

Anyway I don\'t like this kind of movie. It\'s like a teen comedy with grown-ups (At least I think so, I don\'t know the movie and I am not going to watch it).

I hear that! Movies suck more and more these days.

i wouldn\'t say the movies suck these days, i\'d say the movie going experience sucks these days. You\'ve got some guy crinkling his candy wrapper 3 inches away from the back of your head, a baby crying and somebody\'s cell phone going off. Plus it costs 10 bucks to see it in those horrid conditions, when in 3 months you can BUY the movie outright for 15 dollars. That\'s my rant on the movie industry anyway, i could be way off base, that\'s how i see it.

His name was Oscar. Doesn\'t everyone know that?

Oscar Goldman, wasn\'t it? I could cheat and confirm it on imdb.com, but I\'m too lazy.

So do I win the Uber-nerd award or what?

Edit: I think I only had sex because I hid my mini-addiction from my girlfriends; my wife didn\'t find out until TWO years after we were married. I was going through some boxes I got out of my mother\'s attic and I was like \"OH LOOK! my old D&D books!\" She looked mortified; she had married a closet nerd! lol
