Great program, Aerokat! I'm going to try it, but I'm sure I'll have major problems with #3 and #10. Can we cut it back to 10 steps? cuf@Kat's12stepprogramprovestexansaresmarterthanshrinks.com

Boa Babe's 12-step Denial Program for Internet Addiction 1. I will have coffee in front of the computer and read my news on Yahoo! 2. I will eat my breakfast with my hands like I always do - coffee/bagels. If fork is required, I can do that with one hand. Dieting is better than not eating in front of the computer. 3. Define "dressed". 4. Cleaning house can be done on Saturday when the market is closed, ditto laundry. Dinner is at (555) 332-0098 (that's the Chinese...pizza is a different number). 5. I'll telephone my friends who refuse to move into the 21st century and tell them to get a freakin' computer! 6. I'll use my ICQ to talk to my computer friends and do it free! I can invite them to lunch one day and we'll talk...in my computer room. 7. I'll read an e-book while I'm getting my hair cut because my hairdresser has NO good stock information. 8. Those around me can clean the house, do the laundry, and fix the dinner. 9. Commercials are for getting another cup of coffee to drink in front of the computer. 10. Getting out of the house is not necessary if one has developed a really good knowledge of shopping on the internet. 11. Online banking. 12. Of course I'll go to bed. How else to refresh myself for ANOTHER DAY ON THE INTERNET!
