While waiting for a bath

Hello!


How are you folks?

What you give her food and my bed.... (speech rec picked up on the conversation between my wife and I)

Okay, so this morning I am blogging from the speech recognition software! Yay me! Yesterday it was a battle of the bravest, it was either going to be the stupid computer or me. It was me people! It was me... Basically, I uninstall some programs, went back to the previous patch level I had on Vista then I rebooted the freaking system; and while rebooting I said a Hail Mary, a holy father and I silently sang an alleluia. Guess what? System came back up properly! I don't know if it was my uninstalling stuff or the prayers and canticles, all I know is that it worked and this morning I'm using speech recognition again and the computer seems to be at a faster speed... Maybe Steve Jobs spirit had something to do with it.

Well this morning I was still feeling depressed about the whole Canadian thing yesterday and how easy it is to kill somebody here and still be able to post bail. So morose as I was, I decided to watch the Mexican news. Well ladies and gentlemen, it was another miracle! In the news they were reporting about politics and on how one political party is accusing the other one of voting motions while in a state of drunkenness! Funny! One senator even said that the laws had been voted with 90% alcohol and 10% hors d'oeuvre. Good old politics, I'm pretty sure that here in Canada we have some of those stories too, heck all over the world!

And what about the Optimum triple play commercial in the US? My daughter was watching the TV and suddenly she yelled: "They just gave me the finger!"

what areyou talking about? Then she told me on how it looks like we are given the finger when in actuality it is simply the shadow of a phone. Kinda like the old Diet Coke cans, some of you might not recall this but the cans logo displayed a man in a hat snorting what people claimed was cocaine. Since then the Coke cans logo has been changed.

Aaaah, the universe seems to be getting it together today!
