-OutSide

    The world has broughten us so far that we do not need to go outside ever
    again.  If I need something to eat, I order someone to bring it to me.  If
    I want to get the news, the paper boy brings it to my front door.  If I
    need my clothes cleaned, I have machines to do it at home.  I can work out
    of my home.  I can do anything in my home.

    What really gets me to the outside world though is the computer.  With a
    modem and a phone line, I am connected with others.  Others that understand
    what I do.  I may sound like a looser, but this is a big part of our lives.
    Most do not want to except it, but if you are on IRC every day, then the
    computer is a big part of your life.  I know, you will deny.  I will be told
    that I am different, a freak.  One without a life.  I could defend myself,
    but there is no reason to bother.

    I get onto the IRC every night, and talk.  Talk just about anything.  It
    is more fun.  I do not know the faces, yet I seem to understand and to know
    these people better than all of my friends.  Everytime I go out to play ball
    with my friends, I just think about getting home again.  Basketball is not
    as fun as getting onto the IRC.

    I still go to work, hang out with my friends.  I haven't totally just sat
    down in front of the computer and dropped my life.  The point is in less
    than ten years, anyone reading this will more than likely be ten times as
    worse than I am.

    Computers rule our lives friends, get used to it.
