    Ok,i'm new to these boards so i don't know if you've heard these before...

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

    * You turn off your modem and get this awful empty feeling, like you
    just pulled the plug on a loved one.

    * Your start introducing yourself as "Jon at I-I-Net dot com"

    * 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 name.

    * You can't call your mother..... she doesn't have a modem.

    * Your phone bill comes to your doorstep in a box.

    * You laugh at people with 2400 modems.

    * You move into a new house and decide to Netscape before you
    landscape.

    * You refer to going to the bathroom as <downloading>

    * You tell the cab driver you live at:
    http://123.elm.street/house/bluetrim.html

    * Your spouse makes a new rule: "The computer cannot come to bed."

    * You ask a plumber how much it would cost to replace the chair in
    front of your computer with a commode.

    * You start tilting your head sideways to smile. smile.gif

    * You turn on your computer and turn off your spouse.

    * Your spouse says communication is important in a marriage..... so
    you buy another computer and install a second phone line so the two
    of you can chat.

    * You begin to wonder how on earth your service provider is allowed
    to call 200 hours per month "unlimited."

    I thought they were funny when i first saw em smile.gif
