Too verbose... FTFY I young. No read books now. Net too fun. IRL boring. Addicted? Problem?

Have you ever been through the Chunnel? Not to discourage your plans for a vacation to Alaska but you can have the same effect by sitting in a bus, parked inside a very small garage, with no windows. Normally I would agree that the journey's as significant as arriving at the destination, but inside the Chunnel you hardly realise you're even moving, and even if you do exit the bus to look out one of the few windows there's nothing to see but your own reflection in the black glass.
