This is the funniest book because it is so true! I haven't laughed this hard since the Ilan Brothers' coffee book. They sure know about coffee and internet addicts like me. But honestly folks, I do have "asdf jkl;" embedded on my fingers -- you have to own this book -- it is practically my new Bible -- on my nightstand, right next to that list of web sites I thinkof in my sleep that I must visit. OK, OK, so I am not as funny as they are -- but check this out -- you will totally love it.

We're all doing it (otherwise you wouldn't be reading this), so we might as well laugh at it. "It" is devoting more and more of our time online. I highly recommend you take enough time OFFline to read at least one book -- this one! It's quality humor. I've bought three copies and still don't have one for myself -- it's an ideal gift for anyone who is into the internet. These are the same authors who wrote "You Know You've Had Too Much Coffee When ..." They're onto something here and I wouldn't be surprised to see them on Jay Leno (their original comedic hook is up there with "You Know You're A Redneck When ...") Definitely rising stars, I'd catch 'em on their way up with a first edition copy of their book (ya never know, it might be worth something someday beyond a ton of laughs).

5.0 out of 5 stars Must read for online junkies, neophytes, & grizzled Net vets, August 23, 1998

The Ilan brothers have scored again with the "too much" theme. Their first book was a hotter than a cup-a-joe from your local greasy spoon. This one will not disappoint. These guys have their fingers on the pulse of what's hot, new and cutting edge, from java (the drinkable kind) to Java (the encoded kind), they've hit the jackpot, Vegas style, baby.

Their books are quotable like a Seinfeld episode(Mulva?); funny like a South Bronx prank call (this is Frank Rizzo, Jerky); and as cool as De Niro in Casino. Jackpot Ilan Brothers!
