You just awake... your eyes are still shut
Still cant quite focus.....still draggin your butt
You know you need coffee......can taste that first sip
You wait for the maker.....and put the mug to your lip
The feeling is warm.... just what you need
But you know you need more....and its something to read
The paper you say??? no...dont think so.. not it...
Its much more exciting... you cant wait to "click"...
You boot up your puter.......you click that icon...
Can't keep from grinning.... you're really turned on!
When the voice says "Welcome"...your heart skips a beat!!
You know your addicted....all the friends that you'll meet.
And then you see it.......you wait with a stare....
The mail box lights up!! "you've got mail" waiting there!!
OH.. what a feeling!!.... you look with delight!
You hoped you'd have mail.... and you knew you were right!!
So you go thru the mail..... knowing this is the "Best"..
Reading this reading that....as you go thru the rest.
Some you give the "delete" key....others get your first click
You know you must hurry......you gotta be quick!
It is then that you hear it.... You can't wait to see
Your heart gets a flutter... who's name will it be?
And then there it is..... covering part of the screen
The sweet little sound....Oh..you know what that means!!!
"Quick mail check" you promised....you said in your mind.
But you just got an IM.... and your pressing for time!
You know that you want to.... and respond you will
So you stop what your doing.. and go for the thrill!
You "LOL" and "BRB", give kisses and Hugs...
You type and send words... refilling your mug
You give your good friend your attention and time
So that quick little mail check... turns to hours online!

"Thoughts On Diet"
* A diet is a weigh of life.
* It's something most of us do religiously: We
eat what we want and pray we don't gain weight.
* A diet is what you go on when not only can't
you fit into the store's dresses, you can't fit into
the dressing room.
* One guideline applies to fat and thin people alike:
If you're thin, don't eat fast.
If you're fat, don't eat... fast.
* The problem with curbing our appetites is that
most of us do it at the drive in window of McDonalds.
* The most fattening thing you can put in an ice
cream sundae is a spoon.
* The biggest drawback to fasting for seven days
is that it makes one weak.
* Above all, dieters are advised to avoid Pepsi, the
pause that 'refleshes.'
* Sweets are the destiny that shapes our ends.
* Diets are for people who are thick and tired of it.
* The toughest part of a diet isn't watching what
you eat. It's watching what other people eat.
* Diets are for women who not only kept their
girlish figure but doubled it.
* A diet is when you have to go to some length
to change your width.
* It's not the minutes spent at the table that put
on weight, it's the seconds.
* Many women reduce and reduce, yet still never
manage to become a bargain.
* The best way to lose weight is by skipping...
snacks and desert.
* Most people gain weight by having intimate
dinners for two... alone.
* People go to Weight Watchers to learn their
'lessens.'
* A diet is the modern-day meal in which a family
counts its calories instead of its blessings.
"Kitchen Wisdom"
A messy kitchen is a happy kitchen, and
this kitchen is delirious.
No husband has ever been shot while doing
the dishes.
A husband is someone who takes out the trash
and gives the impression he just cleaned the
whole house.
If we are what we eat, then I'm easy, fast, and
cheap.
A balanced diet is a cookie in each hand.
Thou shalt not weigh more than thy refrigerator.
Blessed are they who can laugh at themselves
for they shall never cease to be amused.
A clean house is a sign of a misspent life.
Help keep the kitchen clean - eat out.
Housework done properly can kill you.
Countless numbers of people have eaten in this
kitchen and gone on to lead normal lives.
My next house will have no kitchen --- just vending
machines.
What if Dr. Seuss Wrote a Computer Manual!
1.) If a packet hits a pocket on a socket on a port, and the bus
isinterrupted as a very last resort, and the address of the memory makes your floppy disk abort, then the socket packet pocket has an error to report.
2.) If your cursor finds a menu item followed by a dash, and the double-click icon puts your window in the trash, and your data is corrupted cause the index doesn't hash, then your situation's hopeless and your system's gonna crash!
3.) If the label on the cable on the table at your house, says the network is connected to the button on your mouse, but your packets want to tunnel on another protocol, that's repeatedly rejected by the printer down the hall, and your screen is all distorted by the side effects of gauss, so your
icons in the window are as wavy as a souse, then you may as well
reboot and go out with a bang, cause as sure as I'm a poet, the sucker's gonna hang!
4.) When the copy of your floppy's getting sloppy on the disk, and the microcode instructions cause unnecessary risk, then you have to flash your memory and you'll want to RAM your ROM. Quickly turn off the computer and be sure to tell your Mom.
Remember when your dad always used to say *When i get around to it*...welll here it is *LOL*
