TOP 10 SIGNS YOU'RE ADDICTED TO THE NET
10. You wake up at 3 a.m. to go to the bathroom and stop and check your e-mail on the way back to bed.
9. You get a tattoo that reads "This body best viewed with Netscape Navigator 1.1 or higher."
8. You name your children Eudora, Mozilla and Dotcom.
7. You turn off your modem and get this awful empty feeling, like you just pulled the plug on a loved one.
6. You spend half of the plane trip with your laptop on your lap...and your child in the overhead compartment.
5. You decide to stay in college for an additional year or two,just for the free Internet access.
4. You laugh at people with 2400-baud modems.
3. You start using smileys in your snail mail.
2. The last girl you picked up was a JPEG.
1. Your hard drive crashes. You haven't logged in for two hours. You start to twitch. You pick up the phone and manually dial your ISP's access number. You try to hum to communicate with the modem..... you succeed.
Have a good Friday and a glorious week end.

ROFLMAO
When I first got onto the Net (about 5 years ago), I wouldn't even shut down my computer when I got up, because I didn't want to have to wait for the computer to boot just to check for email.
What a hilarious list.

Hey, Andrea, if the shoe fits . . . (Me thinks the lady doth protest too much.)
Judy, the part about the smiley face in snail mail just cracked me up. I just received copies of some articles that my dear cyberfriend from Florida (George) sent to me thru the USPS, and, lo and behold, he attached a card and had a :-) in the middle of a hand-written sentence.
Maybe we do spend too much time on the Internet. But look at it this way . . . keeps ya' outta pool halls (that's what my Mom used to say way back when nice girls didn't go to pool halls).

Ms Robbie,
How long ago did "nice girls" not go to pool halls?
I remember going to a pool hall once -- I think I actually danced on the table! I know, way too much information.
Do you know how many times I've gotten up in the middle of the night, gone downstairs for a drink of water ::she says with a little smirk:: and walked by the office thinking, maybe I'll just check my emails. Ya, like anyone who writes me would be up at this hour! ! !
Happy Friday and Weekend, Everyone.
