Precious D's Pearls for Swine

I'm having great frustration with my home computer. I've been a big Mac advocate for years and recommend them to all my friends. But my iMac will only be a year old next month and the hard drive has needed replacing twice in that time. It's in the shop now. Last time the replaced both the hard drive and disk drive. What the hell? How am I supposed to convince the unwashed masses that Mac is the way to go when my own keeps dying?

The biggest frustration is that I've been trying to finish some writing projects so I can sell something and quit my crappy day job. Everytime I get all motivated and ready to go the damn iMac decides it want's to thwart my destiny. Damn lazy machine.

My current project is what will most likely be a series of books about the adventures of a little girl called Infinity Jane. She's sort of a modern Pippy Longstocking, but probably more violent. (I guess that would be the modern part.)

In other news, I'm not at all happy about the impending war. Christ, our president is an idiot. Does he really think he's fooling anyone with this orwellian "War is Peace" nonsense? They say every society gets the leaders it deserves. Well, I'd like to officially resign from society because I don't deserve this crap. Oh, and let's try some of that trickle down BS while we're at it, since it worked so well the last time.
