Is it wrong to love my computer? Well, I do, and its not a confession that I make easily.
There’s been much doubt cast as to whether a relationship between man and computer can be a healthy one. Look what happened in the “Matrix”.
But while I can go on record that My Computer has shown a lot more love and compassion for me than most guys I’ve dated, its not the only reason I’ve become enamored by it. After all, who gets turned on by you with just one touch? Who can take you to fantastic places all around, money’s no object? Who opens up to you and tells you everything you need to know about themselves? Huh? Who, when they’ve caught a virus, does their best not to infect you, working quietly, diligently in the background; no fussin, no groanin, no cryin’, all to make themselves well enough again to come back to you? Who can show you and tell you things you’ve never seen or heard before? Who does that!?
Hey, If loving my PC is wrong, then I don’t wanna be right!
Maybe I should think again about getting that dog?… ♥

Showing how ineffective an embargo can sometimes be, this Tuesday, North Korean leader Kim Jong-un, just in time for an upcoming 30th birthday, completed a 3rd round of nuke testing in his state.
U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Susan Rice said Washington and its allies intends to “augment the sanctions regime” already in place due to North Korea’s past non-compliance to shut it down.
North Korea is already one of the most heavily sanctioned states in the world with barely any economic links to to block resulting in much impoverishment there.
The test were reportedly in defiance to US sanctions already in place for N. Korea’s nuclear testing stems back to 2006 and 2009 when Jong-un’s ubber-militaristic little Big Daddy, Kim Jong-il vowed to create a nuclear missile warhead to take out the United States. Maybe if President Obama sits down and has a chat with this guy maybe he’d chill. Barack has a way of soothing ruffled feathers. ♦
You might have heard the case of the family in Maryland who are suing the Monster Energy Drink for the wrongful death of their 14-year-old daughter who died after drinking two cans of the drink within a 24-hour period. They are claiming the caffeine in the product contributed to her death.
A Mayo Clinic study found that two 24-ounce cans of Monster Energy Drink contain 480 milligrams of caffeine, the equivalent of five eight-ounce cups of coffee. Eeeoow!!!
A Monster company spokesman says:
“As a company, we vehemently deny that drinking two cans of Monster Energy by itself can cause a death from caffeine toxicity. Two 16-ounce cans of Monster Energy Drinks contain less or a similar amount of caffeine than one 16-ounce cup of filtered coffee from the leading coffee house.”
YES IT CAN!, if your company markets the beverage to a 14 y.o. girl as a soft drink. And that girl had never even drunk a cup of coffee in her young life. The company’s shares plunged $7.59 (14.23 percent) to $46.12 after the case was publicized. ♦
A California couple says fugitive ex-police officer Christopher Dorner tied them up in their mountain condominium and stole their car before the firefight that led to his presumed death.
Karen and Jim Reynolds said at a news conference Wednesday that they came upon Dorner when they entered the condo in Big Bear, Calif. Tuesday, and believe he’d been there as early as Friday.
They say Dorner had a gun but said he wouldn’t hurt them. Karen said, “He talked to us. Tried to calm us down. And saying very frequently he would not kill us.” “He was very calm and very methodical,” — ABC News
What’s rubbing me the wrong way about this case…
“Terrified and shaken up after a harrowing experience”, would not be the phrase I’d used to describe the couple’s demeanor. More like “jovial” I think.
Were these two jokers living in a cave? Did they not hear about a manhunt in their area for a “mass-murdering ex-marine officer” in their midst. Was their tv on the blink, internet down, cell phones roaming, what!?
How in the world did two senior citizens, zip tied, gagged with pillowcases shoved ontop their heads, manage to free themselves to make that all important 911 call?
There’s more, but I’m gonna hafta pick my battles. This case is closed now with Dorner’s apparent death-by-fire…
