"12 Step Program Of Recovery For Web Addicts"

I will have a cup of coffee in the morning and
read my newspaper like I used to, before the Web.

I will eat breakfast with a knife and fork and not
with one hand typing.

I will get dressed before noon.

I will make an attempt to clean the house, wash
clothes, and plan dinner before even thinking of
the Web.

I will sit down and write a letter to those unfortunate
few friends and family that are Web-deprived.

I will call someone on the phone who I cannot
contact via the Web.

I will read a book...if I still remember how.

I will listen to those around me and their needs
and stop telling them to turn the TV down so
I can hear the music on the Web.

I will not be tempted during TV commercials to
check for email.

I will try and get out of the house at least once
a week, if it is necessary or not.

I will remember that my bank is not forgiving if
I forget to balance my checkbook because I
was too busy on the Web.

Last, but not least, I will remember that I must
go to bed sometime ... and the Web will always
be there tomorrow!
