stop to check your email on the way back to bed.

2. You turn off your computer and get an awful empty feeling, as if
you just pulled the plug on a loved one.

3. You decide to stay in college for an additional year or two, just
for the free internet access.

4. You laugh at people with 28.8 modems.

5. You start using smileys :-) in your snail mail.

6. You find yourself typing "com" after every period when using a
word processor.com

7. You can't correspond with your mother because she doesn't have a
computer.

8. When your email box shows "no new messages" and you feel really
depressed.

landscape.

Subtleties of the English language

Do infants enjoy infancy as much as adults enjoy adultery?

If a pig loses its voice, is it disgruntled?

Why do women wear evening gowns to nightclubs? Shouldn't they be
wearing night gowns?

If love is blind, why is lingerie so popular?

Why is it that when we bounce a check, the bank charges us more of what they already know we don't have any of?

Why is it that no word in the English language rhymes with month,
orange, silver, or purple?

Why don't tomb, comb, and bomb sound alike? Similarly, through, though
and thought.

If lawyers are disbarred and clergymen defrocked, doesn't it follow
that electricians can be delighted, musicians denoted, cowboys
deranged, models deposed, tree surgeons debarked and drycleaners depressed?

Why is it that if someone tells you that there are 1 billion stars in
the universe you will believe them, but if they tell you a wall has wet paint you will have to touch it to be sure?

Are people more violently opposed to fur rather than leather because
it's much easier to harass rich women than motorcycle gangs?
