Evil? Ain't nothin' more evil than electronics. Except for maybe small engines.

Case in point, my evil 'puter. First it kills my "E" drive, causing me to loose my backups, then yesterday it locks up tighter than a jug, no safe mode, no way for a bumpkin such as myself to get it going again, leaving me at the mercy of the "techs". So I'm back to my old 'puter, the one a storefront "tech" said the hard drive was dying in. He also told me that XP didn't use FAT32 files, and his method of getting me going again was to download Spybot.

Gawd, where do we find such men? Guess I've no choice but to roll the bones for a second time.

And if that ain't bad enough, one of my "evil" Fostex drivers managed to dent it's dust cap. I know the driver did this to itself out of spite, since it couldn't have been any of the precious little curtain climbers who visited during the holidays.

And I know, it doesn't affect the sound quality...kind of like when some bum backs into your fender doesn't affect the driveability of the old Flivver.

Just a nice way of saying "Tough shit, buddy."

Well, maybe I ought to dry up and go do something of importance, like fix my chainsaw my crew borrowed while I was out of town. I can tell they borrowed it because it's leaking oil all over everything and the choke lever is in it upside down. But according to them, that's the way it came from the factory.

Boo, hiss!!!!
