I don't know the differences between computer malware, spyware, trojans and viruses, but I do know that having one of them makes such knowledge superfluous.
Taking the laptop in for a fix -- and it'd better be a damn cheap one, since I'm but another lucky beneficiary of George W. Bush's macroeconomic theories -- so my postings may be spotty to nonexistent for the next few days.
Before I go, however, the above parenthetical remark reminded me of something really quite important. A few days ago, I and a friend were having dinner and the sad topic of Obama's brutal, impending tax increases on plutocrats came up. Whatever became of noble "trickle-down"? we asked ourselves. What would become of the indulgent, dispensing class in the face of savage, anticolonial socialism?
The answers sprang to mind simultaneously. I screamed, with pointed index finger thrust in the air, that what this country needs is a "Piss up!" campaign to replace the old trickle-down, just as my friend proposed a charitable crosscountry bike-ride to raise awareness about the unforgiveable plight of plutocrats under a Kenyan thumb -- you know, a nickel-a-mile sort of thing, in financial assistance for unscrubbed yachts, unmanicured lawns, unpolished silver.
Yes, there's work to be done, and I hope you'll organize your own Piss-up! chapter. In these hard times, we must all do our part for our betters.
Anyway, subsequent to the computer repair shop confiscating my last few bucks, I should return. Thank you, and goodbye for now.
