Any News is Good News
The house burned down last night. Not the whole house, but the den part of the cave where the computer sets.
When new, it had a sharp gray-and-black color, but now it’s all sooty and half-melted into some bizarre Dali sculpture. The tower leans to the left like that Italian job they keep shoring up. The keyboard is a wreck. Half the keys melded together, and won’t work. I tried typing a sentence using strange globs of grouped letters, and the frightening part was, some of it made perfect sense. Even Spell-check approved.
I wonder if the warranty is still in effect.
Oh, well. At least the firemen got a good laugh, seeing me sitting here half-naked, hair singed off and pounding away amid the flames. Funny guys, them firemen. Just wait till next year at this time, I told them.

It is April 1st after all...
Oh yah, I get it! Don't do that to me. (between you and me, I'm a real sucker so it's not right to take advantange of that!)
Finally; comments.
Being endowed with just gobs of self-restraint, I didn't want to comment until April 2nd.
But, your post made me think. Why not designer PC towers? Why not have some Dali-esque tower appearing to melt into the desk? Why not have one that balances the Feng Shui? Why not have one that spontaneously combusts?
I wonder if I leave another comment if the first one will show up?
How do we manage to put up with this difficult crap, Ned. Yahoo-chat training?
Years of chat have inured us to disappointment, stilted progress and helped us develop a sense of "we must put up with this, we deserve no better". Plus, it ain't that easy moving a whole blog.
Welcome home, wearied Ken. Almost got ya, eh.
And selamat sejahtera (Well, I do have to try and keep up with my jeerahs, now, don't I?)
