  2. Fix yourself a cup of coffee.

  6. Open your online Mailbox.
  7. After selecting the message at the top of your e-mail list, hit the "Delete" button approximately 250 times to get rid of unwanted junk mail and porno chain letters.

  9. Avoid pounding keyboard with forehead as you are signed off halfway through your report. Repeat Steps 1-4.
  10. Hit the "Write Mail" button. Begin rewriting your e-mail report.
  11. Hit the "Save" button after writing the first two paragraphs.

  13. Write your e-mail report using MS-Word or Notepad.
  14. Save your e-mail report using MS-Word or Notepad.
  15. Highlight the text of your report and hit the "Copy" button.
  16. Repeat Steps 1-4. Resist the urge to fill out an application to Harvard College because you have learned so much from the Discovery Channel.
  17. Hit the "Write Mail" button. Make sure your cursor is inside the text box for your e-mail.
  18. Hit the "Paste" button.
  19. Make sure the nearest window is closed.
  20. Scream and curse at the top of your lungs because your computer has frozen. Avoid replacing your CD-ROM drive with your keyboard.
