My Safe Went Skynet
Long ago I bought a cheap pistol safe. I used it to store my cheap pistol. It was a handy little safe; pleasing black metallic finish, foam coated interior. I “multitasked” with it. My computer monitor was too low. What … Continue reading

Failure Of The ‘Don’t Be Evil’ Concept: Part II
When lighting hosed my phone I discovered that in just six months Sonofabitches engineered two models to be mutually compatible. They cleverly made it so a dead base “kills” two fully functional handsets. Two questions: why and what to do … Continue reading

Word For The Day: Triage Mowing
Winter held on doggedly and springtime was as cold and unforgiving as an accountant’s frown. Farmers whined about unplowable fields, the woodpile ran out, and the dirt road turned into a quagmire. (Global warming my ass: this is all because … Continue reading
