RANT: slapstick doesn’t come cheap

*** begin quote ***

This slapstick doesn’t come cheap. The TSA, which annually eats about $6 billion of our taxes, has gobbled $36 billion since it began operations in 2002. That means we’ve spent $1,800,000 to keep each of those 20,000 terrorists off our flights – not counting the Department of Homeland Security’s billions. Heck, let’s disband the TSA and pay off Al Qaeda instead. Six billion divided among 20,000 terrorists gives every man $300,000 per year. Tell me they’d rather live in caves than retire to some Mediterranean mansion on our money.

Argh!

McBookaire: Last night’s work lost

Thursday, June 12, 2008

Argh!

All the work on chapter 63 was lost.

I don’t know if it was McBa’s fault or operator error.

I have to print everything I do on this project before I leave a file. Luggable has screwed me once very badly on this project loosing three wee hours of the morning prose. Now McBa screwed me out of an hour of not so beautiful prose.

Argh! Argh!

Maybe I should use a typewriter? This is a productivity enhancement?

Argh! Argh! Argh!

McBookaire: McBa saves my chapter? Oh yeah!

Thursday, June 12, 2008

Argh!

Sent a chapter of the novel over to McBa. Worked fine. Did some work no it saved it. And this morning McBa says something to the effect that “you might be surprised at the results”.

Aghhh!

Surprised is NOT the word I’d use.

RANT: Google is allowing the blogosphere to be polluted

Google is allowing the blogosphere to be polluted with trash scrapper sites like this. I’ve run into a bundle in doing Jasper Jottings. Every college in the world is represented with this trash.

They’ve ever got a way of turning off the ‘flag this site’ feature. (Or did Google eliminate it?) I complained to Google and got a form letter back.

Argh!
