Anybody ever be writing up a letter in WORD, or sending an e-mail and catch yourself putting in the <..>'s and the [bold], [/bold], [italics], [/italics] instead of using the little icons? I do all the freaking time.
If I want to change the color of the letters in my e-mail, I will catch myself going... < ..font color...red...> . instead of doing the little button! Of course...it does not work, and that is how I realize my mistake.!

Its just like when I went down to Mexico for a couple years. I was speaking so much Spanish that I began to dream in spanish, and acually forgot most of my English!!! I came back home and had to relearn some stuff!

Crushed from high above,
My dreams lie shattered, my heart broken,
A casulty on a battlefield called love.
