Top Ten Signs You Are an Internet Geek

8. Instead of calling you to dinner, your spouse sends you E-mail.
7. You're amazed to find out that "spam" is a food.
6. You "ping" people to see if they're awake, "finger" them to find out how
they are, and "AYT" them to make sure they're listening to you.
5. Your computer at home acts as a Web server.
4. You introduce your wife as "wife@my_home.org" and refer to your children
