    How long can you go without the internet.

    No logging on to place wagers
    No logging on to check scores
    No logging on to check email
    No facebook
    No porn
    no paying bills
    No checking the weather
    No Youtube
    No SBR

    What's the most days you could go in a row without the internet?

    I can't remember the last day I've had no internet or phone so it'd be tough. Could do it easily if I wanted too, but I like staying connected.

              I imagine I could, but I can't remember the last day I went without it.

                  I'll go to the political hub now and try to understand why most posters are arguing/debating each other but are not involved in their Local Politics Change starts at home

                              I agree the Internet is a tool that no other can come close to being.

                                I went a week without the internet in Cabo last summer. When the weather is nice, the drinks are flowing, and the girls are in bikinis, I could care less about the internet.

                                    Kind of sad but while i'm awake no more than 2 hours. I used to take remote vacations where they simply didnt have any internet. Some major jonezing there.

                                        Went 35 days without it in the army, and I am a guy that spends at least 6 hours a day online.
                                        It wasn't that hard, but then again I didn't have a choice.

                                                If I couldn't log into SBR to get my points.....I would die within 24 hours. So, obviously less than a day for me.

                                                But if there wasn't SBR......who would want to live anyway??

                                                Life without SBR isn't worth living.

                                                  last october my wife bet me i couldn't go 4 hours straight without tv or internet/phone......on a football saturday starting at 12 noon

                                                  needless to say i did it, but i had a huge headache around 4pm and i felt like i was completely lost in the sports world

                                                  only way it would really happen is if we were on a cruise or something and i was out drinking all day or didn't feel like paying $8/minute for their internet bar

                                                    Funny this topic came up. I came back from a 2 day trip thia past weekend to find my internet connection was down when I returned Sunday afternoon. Nightmare. I felt like crack addict in a halfway house. Needless to say, problem fixed and my blood pressure back to normal. Hard to believe this had no part in our lives 10 or so years ago.

                                                        0 days. in fact, i can't even go 3 hrs without it. when i step out, as soon as i come home, i run to pc. it's like a fukkin drug. it should be banned. it's like crack cocaine. i don't know how i lived without it from 1980 to 1992. last week the power here ran out and for 5 hrs, i had no internet and i swear, i was going berzerk pacing the room going mad.. i hate this feeling.

                                                        I wish in a way internet was never invented so instead of having wasted my last 20 yrs of my life on it, i would have been out playing ball hockey each day and getting exercise. i feel bad for kids today unlike when i grew up when we were all day at the park playing outside and today, kids are fat. when i grew up as a kid, we only had 2 fat boys in the whole school. we were never home.. i am so happy i grew up in my time, not today. Now we all sit home all day and do nothing but internet and get fat. we are no longer active.

                                                        INTERNET, IPADS, IPODS, BLACKBERRY'S, XBOX, PS3, ITUNES, YOUTUBE, ETC... HAS RUINED KIDS TODAY.

                                                        thank god we didn't have this when we were kids. we passed our time instead out in the sun all day in the park running around playing sports. today thanks to all this, the parks are now deserted. life sucks to be a kid today. i am so grateful i didnt have all this in my time.

                                                          Not for the reasons you listed, but just for school stuff in general I couldn't do it. I could (and have) gone many days without doing anything betting related + facebook + youtube and such.

                                                            I would literally probably not be able to last more than 3 days with access to some sort of internet. I literally use the internet for EVERYTHING nowadays. Always on it and really couldn't have it any other way. How did cave people do it?

                                                                      Now if I wasn't on vacation I can't go more than 12 hours without the internet.
