I asked the Lord to tell me
Why my house is such a mess.
He asked if I'd been 'computering',
And I had to answer "yes."

He told me to get off my butt
And tidy up the house.
And so I started cleaning up...
The smudges off my mouse.

I wiped and shined its topside.
That really did the trick...
I was just admiring my work...
I didn't mean to 'click.' Shocked

But click, I did, and oops I found
A real absorbing site
It's initials are GS
'An I was into it all night. Embarassed

Nothing's changed except my mouse
It's very, very shiny.
I guess my house will stay a mess...
While I sit here on my hiney. Mr. Green

Yet another tragic case of 'accidental site addiction' rears its ugly head. If it helps Eils I can block access to the site from Scotland?

Very Cute Wink What a poet you are!
I think we all can agree "who needs a clean house"?
My house is clean enough to be healthy and dirty enough to be happy!!
