Are You An Internet Addict?

==== Quote=======

Hello.

Yes, you. You, looking at this screen for hours on end, online. You,
bleary eyed. You, an addict. Have you looked in the mirror lately? Been
outside? Know what day of the week it is?

Your name was given to us by a spouse or family member who is concerned
about your internet addiction. At Internetaholics Anonymous, we can
help.
We're a non-profit society of recovering addicts like yourself that
provides support and counseling through weekly meetings designed to help

you cope with your problem.

We feature a twelve step recovery program and in extreme cases,
interventions. Although it is our firm belief that you are never
"cured,"
you most certainly can recover.

We have designed a brief checklist to determine
if you are an addict. Do you:
1) Have twitches of the hand when you walk by your terminal?
2) Check e-mail more than five times a day?
3) Spend more time chatting than eating or sleeping?
4) Surf aimlessly with no direction, if only to be online?
5) Leave your name and information at countless sites if only
to hope you'll receive a reply one day from a company you'll
never do business with anyway?
6) Log on before important personal habits, such as meal
preparation, hygiene or bodily functions?
7) Have red, swollen eyes that hang halfway out of your head?
8) Spend hours online on a holiday from work, where you'd
usually be griping about your carpal tunnel syndrome?
9) See smoke arising from your computer or WebTV box?
10) All of the above?

If you answered yes to four or more questions (or chose #10), you have a

problem. Please call us at Internetaholics Anonymous at:
1-800-LOGOFFNOWFORPETE'SSAKE.

We're here, we're free, and we're confidential. The first step to
recovery
is admission that you have a problem.

Call us today.
If you can power off to free up your phone line, that is.

Hi, my name is Noia, and I'm an Internet-o-holic

sweeet post man...

High, my name is Dr Toker, and I'm an addict.

I seem to have counted off many of those symtoms you formentioned. But I relised a while back that I had a problem. See, I was recently transferred from the Call Center NOC, to the Data Center NOC. There I beheld many of wonderfull, humming, Internet core routers, ATM switches and IP/ATM switches,at my disposal. This kinda hardware, this kinda of bandwidth. I began feeling much like 'Jafar' in 'Alladin', right after he was turned into an all powerfull genie. (think about it, you'll remember.) With my heart racing, I was able to identify the problem. Now, with these simptoms also being displayed....man... i better get help quick! Naw, I'll be okay I can explain...

7) Have red, swollen eyes that hang halfway out of your head? -----See #9

8) Spend hours online on a holiday from work, where you'd usually be griping about your carpal tunnel syndrome? ----- I cant stand to be away from the network for more than 6 hours at a time, So I worked through the holiday season.

9) See smoke arising from your computer or WebTV box? ----Well the smoke is 'around' the computer...

1. Have twitches of the hand when you walk by your terminal?
   No, I never walk by my terminal--I always stop there.
2. Check e-mail more than five times a day?[/b]
   Some message boards, yes. Email itself, no.
3. Spend more time chatting than eating or sleeping?
   Not chatting.
4. Surf aimlessly with no direction, if only to be online?
   Mainly in the wee hours of the morning, like now.
5. Leave your name and information at countless sites if only to hope you'll receive a reply one day from a company you'll never do business with anyway?
   Uh, no.
6. Log on before important personal habits, such as meal preparation, hygiene or bodily functions?
   Yes.
7. Have red, swollen eyes that hang halfway out of your head?
   Not quite halfway.
8. Spend hours online on a holiday from work, where you'd usually be griping about your carpal tunnel syndrome?
   Yes, but I don't gripe.
9. See smoke arising from your computer or WebTV box?
   Not with my fans.
10. All of the above?
    No.
