Don't forget to back up your computer once a week.

I feel a particular satisfaction in seeing these trashed tapes. All the grief I put up with (or caused) in IT is about that significant.

Keep it up!

Obsolete by anomalicious, on Flickr

Now wait just a Goddamn minute. I use one of those daily. Obsolete? I've only had the son of a bitch 27 or 28 years. It should last another 30.

I have changed my personal exploring ethics code. From now on it will be: "Take only aimed shots, leave only hobo corpses." Copper scrappers, meth heads and homeless beware. The Jonsered cometh among you, bringing fear and dread.
