Divine intervention

[mellicious]

I am somewhat relieved to report that the Dell does not work even when hooked up to the exact same connections as this one (power cord and all). Even though I had already tried two different power cords and two different wall sockets, I had still convinced myself that it was going to work when I tried this. But nope, nada. Exactly the same as before. (Various people have suggested in the past few days that it might be the power source or the video card, as well as the hard drive. I certainly don't know how to fix a power source, and as to video cards, I put a new one in it a year ago and I certainly don't intend to go there again.)


A big amen to this one:

S&R: If you were Jesus, would you use your divine powers to meddle in the outcome of sporting events, as teams like the Rockies believe he does?

Taibbi: If and when I ever get to be Interior Minister, one of my first acts is going to be the putting to death of anyone who thinks God interferes in the outcome of things like sporting events and elections. I’d want to have a giant shark tank built expressly for this purpose. Just throw them in there and then dump a couple of barrels of cow blood in the water.
