Internet addiction - any tips to beat it?
Having packed in smoking I've now decided to tackle my internet addiction to forums (I'm up to almost 20,000 posts on one ) daft websites, newspapers websites,etc.

I have to pack in or drastically reduce my time spent on this laptop thingy.

Anyone got any tips ... or are you as addicted as me?

Look at the people around you... look at the shape of their bodies... the ones that go in and out where you do not are called WOMEN try talking to one of these and that should take up a lifetime or so

Hmmmm in that case, go to the local supermarket. Purchase a case of cold beer. Proceed drinking the entire case whilst watching the world go around and lying by the pool!
