Occasionally I load up Solitaire just for something to click on... so shoot me..

anyways, anyone ever notice that when you finish a game it asks you if it should "deal again", and if you click 'no' it leaves just the blank window...

You'd think that after so long of being like that, Microsoft might have written in the code to close the window when you click "no"

Who the heck thinks to themself "Boy that really is a nice blank green window. Perhaps I will leave it on my screen for a while.."

so stupid.

Y'know, they probably do that just to be annoying, though it is fun to hear my sister yell down the stairs at me "there's something wrong with the computer" when I leave it on. I usually say "yes" anyway. My life is boring.

Ever played solitaire on a "jornada"? It's basically a very small computer with a cool touch screen. Very hard to drag the cards around with. Also very slow at the end. It doesn't have a green screen, it has a grey one.

if you only knew how many times I've thought that exact same thought... they've had solitare in there from 3.11 and it still doesn't close the damn thing... annoying as hell... at least freecell does that... and it's more fun too!

They fixed the card speed in 2k and XP, but the "Do you want to deal again" thing is still there. hehe.

I should try to talk my friend into programming a solitaire game that shuts down at the end. Damn. I can't right now cuz he's busy working on a web design for me.

Well, I still stand by my "it's annoying" point. I'll just quit playing solitaire.
