Life used to be simpler.
This morning two limes ran across the screen of my computer monitor carrying cans of Pepsi. Damned limes! I remember when limes knew their place. They would sit sedately in your refrigerator and provide a source of citric acid when consumed and they would prevent scurvy. They sure as hell didn’t run around carrying off cans of Pepsi for no good reason. And they didn’t have those squirrelly little green arms and legs.
Then my anti-spyware program kept giving me pop up windows telling me to update. Damned spyware! If I wanted crap to pop up on my screen, I would not have gotten anti-spyware in the first place.
Many of you are probably saying something like, “Jimbo, you are a relic of a prehistoric time. You know you are getting up in years when you start lamenting the good old days.”
While I can’t disagree with you, the simpler times to which I was referring were the day before yesterday. I loaded the software yesterday and the limes invaded this morning. Up until then, life was better. I surely hope those limes don’t come back, or that my anti-spyware blocks them, if they do.
Because we like to feel protected from spyware—and limes—here in Jimbo’s world.
