Thou shalt not sit in front of the computer

Ever wonder why somebody always focuses on how to use time efficiently and not about how time gets drifted away?I've come across hundred things that could be done to make best use of time. Plan, organize, prioritize.....
But today, I'm wondering what captivates most of my time which I could otherwise use to do the above.
Here is a list of things one can do to waste time.
Disclaimer: I do not do many or most of the things listed below. But yet let time fly by
1) Create email accounts with all free email providers- yahoo, rediff, hotmail, gmail etc..
2) Send at least 2 mails from each email id to all the friends and confuse them. This will make sure you receive email in all the accounts
3) Check all of your email accounts once in every 20 mts
3) Create accounts in communities such as Orkut
4) Add every possible person as a friend
5) Read the scrapbook of your friend's friend's friend's friend and gradually reduce down to your friend's scrap book. Do this with all the friends in the list of each of your friend. ( If you want to break your head at this point, please go to a nearby wall or if you don't want to get up try the computer table)
6) Play solitaire
7) If you win aim for 3 consecutive wins
8) If you lose keep playing until you win and repeat step 7
9) Create a blog and write a stupid post in it ( like this one)
10) Check the blog spot every 3 mts to see if someone has visited and left a comment

At this moment, I want to go away from the computer...am leaving this prison of computer chair and the monster LCD monitor with a vow not to comeback to do any of the above.........
