bron-spizaetus
This fucker almost killed me in the matrix last night. but i found the perfect link, up there. i can’t mention the other name of the virus, though, because if I do, my operating system will SHUT DOWN. It’s that evil.
The answer to bron-spizaetus: (1) Dr. CureIt, a free virus detection program that is updated DAILY. And (2) reformatting my hard-drive with two partitions — one for XP and one for UBUNTU. Mmmmbuntu.

shot in the dark
I love this shit. For some reason, all of the following ring true (as places I’ve been on one or the other side of) — straight from Todays’ Craig’s List Missed Connections:
1. Tagline: Not meant to be. Really.
“Nothing’s ever goig to happen, we’re both paired up, but sometimes I just can’t stop thinking about kissing you. Just that. I feel that tightness inside when I’m near you sometimes, it’s painful, but pleasurable too. Don’t know how you feel or what you’re thinking, so I’d never take the chance. And honestly, I don’t think I should. I like your friendship and my sanity. But I want to. Just once.”
Right on, get it out sister.
2. Tagline: Not really a missed connection with kindness - w4m
“You weren’t that unkind. It’s NEVER a good time to break up. Never. It’s always a crapfest. So just do it sooner rather than later. No one likes to be lied to even if you think the reasons behind it are noble.
So, thank you to B.L. and T.V. and S.R. THANK YOU for having the balls to tell me I was a missed connection.
Thanks to M too for not being a complete jerk. You may mean well but you don’t listen. And quit comparing your current to those in your past!”
Ok, ok! I’ll stop.
3. Tagline: I miss you every day, it never changes.
“You had a great impact on my life. I never loved anyone like I love you. I brought a lot to the table, too. I was patient and loving and did everything because I really wanted to, and with joy in my heart doing it. I deserved the same in return with what felt like solid ground under my feet. Hell, with the love we shared and the common core values we both have, with all said and done I still deserve another chance. Can’t you find it in your heart to give us one more chance? With all that was going on and by now hopefully has passed couldn’t we both try again and see if there isn’t a real future for us? Those words from your lips would bring so much joy to my heart; can you honestly say I wasn’t good to and for you?”
Nope, you were a dear.
4. Tagline: To the man masturbating at barnes and noble
“I know it’s not your thing, but please take it to the bathroom. And if I ever see you again, I will punch you in the face. ”
Just joking about this one, I’d never punch anybody in the face . . .

one last quip?
her:
“Yah, that’s what I’m shootin for — Thursday afternoon.”
This is what you said last week.
Let’s just do the best we can / on the next project – let’s communicate differently. Will you please send me your contact info so we can talk on the phone? Email seems so impersonal.
There will be projects with unrealistic deadlines and usually they foot the bill for the ‘expedite’; just let me know when that applies and I’ll get extra funds.
me:
’shootin for’
‘at least a week’‘expedite!’ i like the sound o’ that . . .
I’ll give you a phone call before noon.
her:
Sounds good. Yup, I’m in all day.

a second chance for second life
It’s always`my policy to give someone a second chance if they have updated their wiki. second life’s wiki
But it appears that I was wrong about the world — wikis do not make something automatically good. Second life is laggy as shit and I drives me crazy. It’s not a game. It’s not fun.
These online games look a lot more fun, even without the third dimension:
The Passively Multiplayer Online Game.

11:54:57 PM AgentRaleigh
Okay, I need to ask you a question only you can answer to ensure you are the true account owner.
11:55:03 PM Customerferstenfelma

11:55:37 PM AgentRaleigh
Do you by chance have a second eBay account registered under your name?

11:58:53 PM AgentRaleigh
Okay, please let me look for other ways to verify your identity.
12:01:43 AM AgentRaleigh
Sorry for the long wait. What you can do now is to fax in ID in order to further assist you.
12:01:52 AM Customerferstenfelma

12:01:55 AM AgentRaleigh
We will accept a copy of your driver’s license or other government issued ID as verification of your identity. If the contact information on your ID does not match the contact information on file with eBay, we will also need a copy of a utility bill or other mailed document sent to the address on your eBay account.
