Well, it's definitely filled several voids: where to find cheap drugs, answerd that haunting question on the name of that Nigerian head of state that died in that plane crash, where I can get my next mortgage at nine points below prime, where I can find a decent Russian bride in case I get bored of my current wife, etc...
With all those questions unanswered I'd lose my mind!
Unfortunately, I am now addicted to The Internet, which doesn't have any commercials or program changes (the natural reminders that time is passing and it's time to GET OFF AND GO DO SOMETHING).
On the positive side: I've learned a lot about how other people think and feel, and why they might think differently than me (other than being stupid or insane, which I guess was my previous assumption). I'm more able to get along with and find common ground with all kinds of different people now.

This is why I watch TV and use the Internet at the same time. I don't have to wait for the Internet to stop, so I know I won't miss anything if I leave. But I don't game or do anything else online that requires constant attention.

That's bad man, you should think about walking or something. I'm on the Internet A Lot, but I make time for walking my dog.
