Yeah, I guess. Who knows what I might have become had I not been so lazy?

If it involves money (with the exception of paying bills via my bank's
on-line facility) I want dead trees. I want them to KNOW that I have
dead trees. I comfort myself that almost all the paper in my house
eventually goes into the recycling bin, along with all the plastic,
metal and glass.

I only buy used paperbacks and donate the ones I'll never read again to
the library, which is a short walk away. Damn, I'm good.
