1.) I WILL have a cup of coffee and read a newspaper before going on the web.

2.) I WILL eat breakfast with a knife and fork and not with one hand typing.

3.) I WILL GET DRESSED BEFORE NOON.

4.) I WILL make an attempt to clean the house, wash clothes, and plan dinner before going online.

5.) I WILL sit down and write a letter to those unfortunate few friends that are web deprived.

6.) I WILL call someone on the phone who I cannot contact by email or via the web.

7.) I WILL read a book...if I can remember how.

8.) I WILL listen to those around me, and their needs, and not tell them to stop talking so that I can hear midi music on the web.

9.) I WILL NOT be tempted during TV commercials to check for email.

10.) I WILL get out of the house at least once a week, even if it is not necessary.

11.) I WILL remember that my bank is not forgiving, and pay my bills and balance my checkbook each month, without being too busy on the web.

12.) I WILL (last but not least!) remember to go to bed some time, because the web will be there tomorrow.
