You can use your powers for Good And Not Evil if you want
The man who delivers the daily miracle that is a newspaper (whatever happened to paper boys?), in light of recent drizzly Dallas weather, has taken to putting not one, but two, plastic wraps over my newspaper. Mental note: The Christmas tip should be a bit larger this year.
The idiots who create spyware and adware have caused a severe loss of enjoyment of my on-line experience these days. Yes, I have the removal software and screening software and all that, but somehow these things got on my hard drive and installed themselves as a program. Now, every time I use Internet Explorer I have to close at least 10 windows with pop-ups for sites I'd NEVER go to: gambling, weight loss products, unsolicited ad-ware, etc. etc. Pop-up blockers don't work. Yes, they have an "uninstall" feature on these programs, but they happen to lock-up your computer when you use them. I finally found them in the program files and deleted them, and you can delete everything manually but some of the ".exe" files won't let me send them to the recycle bin. My software can't delete them, either. And they aren't a virus so that software doesn't work to solve this problem. Mental note: A pox on these punks' houses.
My higher-order life-liver sister Jilly is stopping by today to spread her gospel of higher-order life-living en route to Birmingham. She didn't have to have a 24-hour layover in Big D (where there's nothing to do but go to malls or the JFK exhibit) but she chose to anyway. Mental note: Plan on having a good fatigue all day tomorrow...crabby, but had a good time anyway.
My children, like their parents, like to have a soundtrack to their early morning preparation. They've been dragging a portable CD player in and out of the bathroom each morning, leaving it in there afterward more often than they take it out. This results in toothpaste splatters or water splashes on their sister's CD that they put on the counter instead of in the case when exchanging music...which results in barking at each other. My thinker wife purchased a mini-CD/Radio/Clock that sits neatly in the corner which won't solve all the problems of CD exchanges, but will do wonders for neatness. Mental note: Keep letting her be a great wife and mother.
The new hosts of our junior/senior guys Bible study (we rotate homes each month) loaded us down with sodas, bite sized pizza pockets, great candy choices, and chocolate-chip cookies right out of the oven last night. For some reason, we had one of the best possible Bible studies last night.
After seeing the mental difference in my attitude upon seeing how our actions affect others recently, lets all use our powers for good and not evil today, alright?
