Why ponder something that will never happen?

I, as opposed to Paulson will not take a crap in your thread. I think you have a legitimate question.

I think I would go insane from lack of porn, then realize that there is more to the internet besides porn, such as.....UT2003, CS, and ATOT. Then I would force myself to become a CCG junkie and play Super Mario Brothers 3 until my NES breaks.

I hate to burst your bubble, but there is no switch anywhere to "close down the Internet." Even Al Gore, the man who invented it doesn't have access like that.

The last time they closed the internet for cleaning, I almost went stir-crazy.

I'd probably read a lot and maybe try to beat every computer game I own.

I did that last year when I was stuck on a 26.4k modem. It was actually kinda fun.

I pretty much quit watching tv because of the net..I like to read do research and look things up. Can't imagine ploping down on a couch and just sit there watching the dribble that passes as entertainment on tv these days..sooo I don't know. I hope it never happens.

I'd use the telephone a lot more, that's for sure. I'd also probably get more work done. The biggest hit I'd take would be not being able to talk with HotChic and Linuxboy over AIM anymore though.
