Now that’s how you ruin a perfectly good day!

I was going to point you in the direction of the Online Blog’s write-up of Steve Job’s MacExpo keynote, or tell you about the HP employees getting suspended for passing around porn on their PC’s (how dumb do you have to be?), all with appropriate pithy comments, but that was before I got a message from our landlord claiming they haven’t received our rent check for July 1 yet. The very same rent check that was cashed and cleared my bank back on the 9th. They are going to check the original deposits and see if maybe they deposited the check but screwed up their data entry somehow. I await the results of this search. I don’t feel much like making pithy comments right now, for obvious reasons. So read the stories, and make your own :).

    Linked – Ransomware Meets Multi-level Marketing

    “A new ransomware, Popcorn Time, gives users the option of infecting others in lieu of paying the ransom.” I can’t imagine infecting someone else on purpose, but I learned long ago not to underestimate what people will do to others if it’ll benefit themselves.

  • Doesn’t get more fun than this

    Yes, since I’m responsible for the “pool” laptops that are available to our attorneys for use outside of the office, and since they’re all Dells, I spent a good part of my Monday checking for laptop battery recalls. Yippee for me! I’ve gotten through about half the laptops we have and haven’t found one yet…

  • Monday morning stuff

    Overheard at Saturday night’s hockey game: “Dude, you’d never catch me in New York or Washington or any place like that, those are just targets for terrorists, it could happen anytime, you never know” 5 minutes later from the same person: “Well they’re just over-reacting to this girl getting killed at the game, I mean…

  • Election fatigue

    You may, or may not, have noticed that I haven’t really said anything about any interesting work projects lately. In fact, I’ve barely talked about my job at all. Fact of the matter is, I do work for a political/lobbying organization and this is election season! Granted, we’re involved in state-level politics and not the…
