I still have Vista. I can’t even upgrade for free.

Probably corny, but I think the Beach Boys’ “God only knows” is the best love song of all time. Does Emmanuel play it anyplace?

My favorite Windows was 7. I intentionally bought this computer because it had 7 on it. It’s like it had a “Mission Impossible” self-destruct setting “this recording, Mr Phelps, will self-destruct in 5 seconds...”

Seems a good time for a neener break:

Three contractors are bidding to fix a broken fence at the White House. One is from Chicago, another is from Tennessee, and the third is from Minnesota. All three go with a White House official to examine the fence. The Minnesota contractor takes out a tape measure and does some measuring, then works some figures with a pencil. "Well," he says, "I figure the job will run about $900. $400 for materials, $400 for my crew, and $100 profit for me." The Tennessee contractor also does some measuring and figuring, then says, "I can do this job for $700. $300 for materials, $300 for my crew, and $100 profit for me." The Chicago contractor doesn't measure or figure, but leans over to the White House official and whispers, "$2,700." The official, incredulous, says, "You didn't even measure like the other guys! How did you come up with such a high figure?" The Chicago contractor whispers back, "$1000 for me, $1000 for you, and we hire the guy from Tennessee to fix the fence." "Done!" replies the government official. And that, my friends, is how the new stimulus plan will work.
