Dear Chequers,

Glad to see the suicide attempt failed. Sometimes these addictions (spending too much time on the internet) can overwhelm us. As is usually the case, Chequers didn't really want to take its own life, but a cry for help in the early morning hours was what it took for it to see that it had to make a change. There was an online monkey on it's back and it had to be shaken loose. With a little counseling from the nice people at the Betty Ford CyberClinic, and a show of faith from the rest of the internet addicted community, everything will be all right. Really it will. Now, lie back, relax, try to write something with a pencil for a change. Here, let me help you get the white out off the monitor...
