Ha Ha Ha, you can't catch me, I'm in cyberspace!

In 1979, my husband was in residency and getting his attention was very difficult.

I coined the phrase, "You have the attention span of a gnat!" My mother had always said when you make up a phrase, repeat it to people and then wait for it to come back to you.

I was watching Mr. Baseball many years later and Mr. Tom Selleck had the line, "You have the attention span of a gnat." He liked this phrase so well he used it in his current Blue Bloods show to his son on the show.
