Electric complaint

Of all the books I have read, I have never once had the pages suddenly go blank because there was a power surge. When reading a magazine, I have never had to click on a button to avoid having it vanish because I had not turned a page within a prescribed length of time. Of all the words I have written on paper, I have never lost one because of a browser crash.

Computers may be convenient, they may take up less space than a public library, or even a bookcase full essential of reference works. But they have a hell of a long way to go when it comes to reliability and ease of use.

Before the lights go out.

One more post, to sit unseen on the server while Brad moves it.
Let it be a talisman bringing speedy success.
Or, wait.
No, I've lost track of what day it is again.
Friday night, not Thursday.
"And the winner of the Emily Litella Award is...."
Nevermind.
