Yes, I indulge from time to time. I have no idea what kind of times I've gotten, but I do play. I've become heavily addicted to free cell solitaire now though. It was a trick to get onto, but now I can't stop. My best streak so far is 11 wins. I just won five in a row and had to stop myself.

I have played minesweeper a time or two did pretty well but not one of my favs. Hehe, I hit too many bombs. BOOOMM!!! I do like Spider solitaire. My wife is hooked on Spider and I can't get her off of it.

I used to play mindsweeper all the time. It's a very entertaining game. I can't say I've ever won the game in a short amount of time however. It's been a while. All that school work, and busy, busy life.
Pinball is also one of my favorite past-times. I used to be rather good, compaired to my brother atleast. He's still trying to beat my high score from 2 years ago.

Last option on my list for dier straits in the 'boooorrrrrrinnng meeting' scenario is Minesweeper. I admit I've played it when I don't have a better alternative. I've got some decent times too. generally. I generally try to avoid the M$ games when I can though. If you ever catch me playing sol.exe on a PC bigger than a 386SX, call the hospital. The first time I played it on a machine over 50 mhz and didn't feel bad about insulting the hardware was when I played it on my iPOD (which was playing music at the same time)
