they melt the hours away. They are mesmerizing. I have played thousands of games of solitaire, freecell, hearts, minesweeper, scrabble, and lately--online crossword puzzles. OK, some are less mindless than others, but they are totally hypnotic for me. Often, I enjoy them. But there are plenty of times when I find them boring, but still cannot break away. Like I am stuck, glued to the keyboard and monitor. They are mindless in the sense that they mesmerize me and deaden my consciousness.
