I would like for most IT consultants to live in buses. Dude, the porn is tops. That’s funny. I would like for most IT consultants to live in buses.

I wish there was some middle ground for me, but between my Blackberry, my home office, and my clients, I'm either completely plugged in, or on the verge of heatstroke in some limestone canyon with no cell signal. Personally, I prefer the latter. But I agree with you. Never in the history of mankind has so much information been freely available to so many people. What do marmosets eat? Where is Burkina Faso? What is the average year-round temperature in Tavarua, Fiji? When did Jackie Gleason die? The answers are all just a Google away. The amount of free information is staggering. Still, there's a part of me that would rather be living in an abandoned school bus.

I appreciate my computer and really cannot remember days when we did not use them. Although I do remember in high school, the internet revolution was just beginning. Hell, we all know I mastered the chatting! However, I sit at my computer all day long plugging away and the last thing I feel like doing when I get home is spending MORE time at the computer. But, like you are saying, life has made it a necessity, so you have to use them, even if sometimes you don't want to! (I am sure you loved the grammar in that last sentence, if I can call it that!)
