Your name was given to us by a spouse or family member who is concerned about your internet addiction. At Internetaholics Anonymous, we can help. We’re a non-profit society of recovering addicts like yourself that provides support and counseling through weekly meetings designed to help you cope with your problem.
We feature a twelve-step recovery program and in extreme cases, interventions. Although it is our firm belief that you are never “cured”, you most certainly can recover.

4) Surf aimlessly with no direction, if more...

You might recall that John Hinckley was the seriously deranged young man who shot President Reagan in the early 1980s. Hinckley was absolutely obsessed with movie star Jodie Foster, extremely jealous, and in his twisted mind, loved Jodie Foster to the point that to make himself well known to her, he attempted to assassinate President Reagan.

There is speculation Hinckley may soon be released as having been rehabilitated. Consequently, you may appreciate the following letter from former presidential hopeful John McCain to Mr. Hinkley. The staff at the mental facility where Hinkley is being treted is reported to have intercepted this memo and it reads as follows:



To: John Hinckley

From: Sen. John McCain, R AZ.

My wife and I wanted to drop you a short note to tell you how pleased we are with the great strides you are making in your recovery. In our fine country's spirit of understanding and forgiveness, we want you to know there is more...

Dear John,
Hillary and I wanted to drop you a short note to tell you how pleased we
are with the great strides you are making in your recovery. In our
Country's new spirit of understanding and forgiveness we want you to know
there is a bilateral consensus of compassion and forgiveness abroad
throughout the land.
Hillary and I want you to know that no grudge is born against you for
shooting President Reagan. We, above all are aware of how the mental
stress and pain could have driven you to such an act of desperation.
Hillary and I are confident that you will soon make a complete recovery and
return to your family to join the world again as a healthy and productive
young man.
Best wishes,
Bill Clinton
P.S. Guess you heard Ken Starr is having an affair with Jodie Foster.
