Man, can I procrastinate!

Man can I procrastinate. I’m good at it. I’m real good at it. I’ve had a lot of experience with it and it has always been a favorite pastime of mine. 

I am also a programmer. Not good to be both. There are many excuses for a programmer to procrastinate. The Internet. Oh, the Internet. The Internet is a professional procrastinator’s best, best friend: a procrastinator’s dream . Think about it. If you're looking for distraction the Internet always comes in handy. If you're looking for something to totally and uselessly just suck up your time, the Internet is there for you. And as a programmer the Internet especially offers us a great environment to procrastinate. If you are a programmer *and* you maintain a Web site you are really lucky in that this combination provides you a terrific procrastinating opportunity.

Let's face it, your Web site can always be better...always! Change a font size here, a background color there. Oh, yea, us procrastinators are very  blessed to be programmers and Web site owners. There’s always a new Web development tool out there...we just have to find it! Another great reason to procrastinate. Get the idea?

Hold it! I can't blame my success at procrastination on the Internet, though, I've been good at procrastinating *way* before the Internet ever provided the incentive. I was a young procrastinator before computers were popular. Before I ever heard of computers anywhere besides in science fiction movies. So I'll stop blaming the Internet.

OK, enough procrastination, back to work!
