Reviving the Dead | Part III
There was a delay in getting part III of this mind numbing series out due to certain unforeseen circumstances which I’m not going to tell you about. Some things just shouldn’t be mentioned online.
Sounds good doesn’t it?
Due to the above mentioned delay I have decided to sum up what happened after evicting all the illegitimate [...]
Reviving the Dead | Part II
In our last episode, the hero, (meaning me) after being dived bombed by a previously unknown alien life form that had been dwelling within the unclean recesses of a dead PC, had just lowered his cardboard shield and fishing net in preparation for his first peek into the guts of his wife’s computer. We pick [...]
Reviving the Dead | Part I
If you happen to recall, my wife’s trusty old custom built PC had a stroke the other day and never recovered. Or to be more specific, the original 6 year old load of XP Pro, in spite of regular daily cleaning and defragging, finally bit the big one. Lucky for us we had recently purchased [...]

Attack of the low blood sugar
As most of my regular readers already know (all 3 or 4 of them), I’m not exactly what you might call a big guy. I’m more like that guy that has to run around in the shower to get wet. I’m actually more like the guy who has to run around outside in the sun [...]
The day the Social stood still
I’m not going to say that this day will ever live in infamy (it won’t) but much to the social set’s dismay, all of Twitter and rather large parts of Facebook went down this morning reportedly from DoS attacks. Now I have a Facebook account that I dabble in just about everyday for [...]
