They say the first step is admitting that you have a problem. Well, I do. I am addicted to Mafia Wars - a Facebook game who's sole purpose is to complete "jobs" and achieve higher levels. There's heists and hauls, hits and boss fights. You travel the world: New York to Bangkok, Moscow to Vegas, Cuba to Atlantic City. And Italy is coming soon. It's not a mere obsession, it's a sickness. My astute son asks, "Daddy, why is Mommy crying?" No, that's not what he really asked. His query: "Why do you play that game? It's just a lot of clicking." I don't have a reasonable rationale. Just when I think I'm done, they add more jobs, more scenic locales. Just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in. Cue the violin music....
