Computers Are Dangerous To Your Health!

I have noticed something since I began a relationship with the computer world. My body has broken down!!!!
I guess it was about the time that Michael was born and I was at home more in the three years following. Believe it or not I had a 386 and surfed (or should I say dog paddled) the net. Since that time until now I have had to change my lens prescription to include bifocals!!! Some may say it is age....I think NOT!!!!
There has been a steady weight gain noticed too!!! There must be rays emitting from the computer that add on weight in areas that seem to be in range. Some say it's over eating and lack of exercise.....I think NOT!!!
I have had to have surgery on both of my wrists for carpal tunnel syndrome and this is the only repetitive task that I engage in. Thanks to my friend Gary Soenen my carpal tunnels are unsyndromed and I can type as fast as I talk again.......I think NOT!!! A new stumbling block has hit my relationship with my computer!!!!
The latest ailment to attack me from my computer is targeted to my right arm. The computer always attacks the most valued area of the body involved in its life.....the dominant extremity!!! From what I can gather, it is either tennis elbow or golfer's elbow but again is due to a repetitive task. There has been no tennis or golf played here!!! Why don't they call it Computer Elbow or Cyber Arm Syndrome??????
Perhaps a law suit to Bill Gates is in order to compensate for this continual breakdown.....after all he does have the monopoly on the business. Someone should have to pay for this!!!??? I think NOT!

I think I will just stay away from the knife this time try ice and motrin
