Nope still wearing blackie

I hear that its a winter wonderland over there. I think we might be getting some of that this weekend. Bundle up Al!

so... i keep getting spyware called "MicrosoftWindowsSecrutyCenter_disabled...

awesome!
i'd like to know how it gets on my computer even when i'm NOT ONLINE...

thanks for putting me onto this spybot program Paras, it's incredible how falliable Norton (the program my department swears by) is...

Eric are you feeling alright?

"fuck everything"?

That's a sentiment I can agree with on at least 2 levels.

SO I WAS TOTALLY HAPPY AND CONTENT TODAY!!!







HA GOTCHA APRIL FOOLS!!!!

ah shit it's the 2nd. fuck everything.

Granted, I sometimes feel like I follow U.S. politics more closely than a Canadian ought to. I can try to convince myself that it's because what happens down there has a relatively large impact up here, or that political trends in the States have a tendency to waft across the 49th, but really it's because of gems like this statement regarding the Democrats' war-spending bills and the veto at President Bush's disposal:

"It's going to be like the government shutdowns" of 1995 and 1996, predicted Rep. Jack Kingston (R-Ga.). "The Democrats' honeymoon is fixing to end. It's going to explode like an IED."

I thought this was a pretty good April Fools Day joke... which I admittedly believed when I read the headline.

Ben Mulroney to run in Papineau for Conservatives

Which, even if you don't follow Canadian politics, was pretty funny.

nice try, Albert, by the way.

Nothing beats this though:

1 April 2003, twelve days after the start of "Operation Iraqui Freedom," the U.S. invasion of Iraq, the Iraqi ambassador to Russia, Abbas Khalaf Kunfuth, stepped before a group of international reporters and read from what he claimed was a Reuters news bulletin. "The Americans have accidentally fired a nuclear missile into British forces, killing seven." The room fell into stunned silence; then Kunfuth shouted, "April Fools!"

so... i ran the spybot program as soon as i'd re-whatever-ed my computer, and it came up with a Microsoft protect - disable bot... already!! where from, is what I'd like to know...

thanks for the help Par
