I'm usually doing a couple of other things when online at home; like watching baseball, reading a book, talking to the wife and kids, etc. Just surfing would get old really fast.

Definitely, especially when I am actually not avoiding work and really have nothing to do in the office. I have it right now and there really isn't anything I want to watch on tv.

You read the book, mostly. And occasionally pause to scroll, click or view something online. The reading is active, the surfing passive.

Firefox's StumbleUpon extension is a pretty good cure for this.

I get that after work, mostly because I have done so much surfing at work.

During work, the internet computer is on my left, the Associated Press computer is on my right and an in-house automation computer is in the middle. So, I'm like Michael Matrix, except with ancient crap my boss is too cheap to replace.

We should start a surfer's anonymous club or something.

We could meet on-line.
