i used to only visit atot about once a day. now that i have dsl at home and have my computer on 24/7, i'm on atot almost always. i check often to see if someone has replied to any of the threads i replied to. i check for new topics. i spend MUCH MORE time here now than i should. (it went to 1/2hr per day to 2hrs/day reading and responding to threads.)

time for me to undergo the 12 Step ATOT program.

step 1: quit cold turkey

step 2: see step 1

ok..drop the first digit..it's the 2 step program :)

im sorry my friend. no one can help you now. ATOT is like a black hole and once you pass the event horizon. weather that be subscribing or getting DSL/Cable there is no turning back. so just sit back and enjoy the rest of you time here

Your PPD is only 2.20 so you're still OK.
