In case anyone cares....

If you're reading this, welcome to a very lonely corner of cyberspace.

I've been sidelined by the latest collection of viruses and spyware that are going around. If any hackers stumble upon this site, please, take what is obviously an extraordinary aptitude for computer engineering and use it to make yourself some money!

If anyone cares (and judging by the tally of visitors to this site, no one does), I finished Arrowsmith last week, and I highly recommend it to anyone who struggles with the establishment on a regular basis, be it at a job, in your social life, or in any of the myriad of bureaucratic nightmares we all face on a regular basis (my current one is with Webroot, the company that manufactures Spy Sweeper, the useless anti-spyware software I use, and their customer service dept. is even more useless).

And, like it matters, our fearless leader has once again this week chided Democratic politicians for wanting to spend way too much of our hard-earned money on things like health care and the environment. Not vital interests like a quarter-billion-dollar bridge to serve 50 people living on an island in Alaska, or close to a trillion (can anyone even imagine how much money that is?) on a war that has only made the world less safe and the U.S. more reviled. No, useless crap like the environment and health care.

Merry Christmas Shopping Season!
