YES I did that too! Probably one of the earliest signs of my now perpetual "sad-ness" (sade dis moi! sade donnes moi!) - I started doing so from the ripe ole age of 10... and then did it up until I was 15. Then I discovered how to dub videos & had no need to :P At one point, I had my circadian rhythms tuned so that I didn't even need to set my alarm & just naturally woke up at about 5:30am Saturday mornings to watch Rage. Gawd I could *never* do it now. And before anyone points the finger... you're all just equally as sad as I deep down... or you wouldn't be on this list ;) Nathan. . Yahoo!
