No such thing as a "Two Minute Egg" in the Rain

Ok.  So, I watch as my daugther staggers out of the door to school half asleep and admire her perseverence.  She is in what she calls "hell week" as a third year Engineering student at Drexel University here in Philly.  She really is a good egg.  Egg?  That sounds good.  I walk over the the stove and fire up the water for a nice soft-boiled egg or two.  I plop them in and remind myself, "I have to pay attention.  It's only two minutes".  Then, I sit down an log into Active Rain.  Bad move.  After dancing in the rain for what semed like less than two minutes, I hear the eggs bumping around in the pot.  All of the water is almost boiled out and I'm left with my eggs...hard boiled.  As it goes in our business, timing is sometimes the key ingredient to a successful deal.
