How addicted are you to the net?
as strong as in this joke below? or worse. I wonder how many will admit their addiction and what you are doing about it. A valid topic for discussion and maybe some reasons for abnormal
behavior ???...hmmmm
-----------------------------------------
addicted to the Internet ?
You know you are addicted to the Internet when...
You kiss your girlfriend's home page.
Your bookmark takes 15 minutes to scroll from top to bottom.
Your eyeglasses have a web site burned in on them.
All your daydreaming is preoccupied with getting a faster connection to the net: 28.8...ISDN...cable modem...T1...T3.
And even your night dreams are in HTML.
You turn off your modem and get this awful empty feeling, like you just pulled the plug on a loved one.
You refer to going to the bathroom as downloading.
You start introducing yourself as "Jim at I-I-Net dot net dot au
Your heart races faster and beats irregularly each time you see a new WWW site address in print or on TV, even though you've never had heart problems before.
You step out of your room and realize that your parents have moved and you don't have a clue when it happened.
You turn on your intercom when leaving the room so you can hear if new e-mail arrives.
Your wife drapes a blond wig over your monitor to remind you of what she looks like.
All of your friends have an @ in their names.
When looking at a pageful of someone else's links, you notice all of them are already highlighted in purple.
Do you have any you would like to add and share for our own addictions ???
- You refuse to do exams in schooll becuase you can't add smile faces or icons with your emotions.....

you first must admit your addiction before you can deal with it .
