Speaking of computers:

In case no one has seen it in the Break Free section, I am proposing using Facebook as a tool to bring people to GYE.

Think about it (but please discuss it there).

No. I want to discuss it here. Right here. On this thread.

No other thread - only this one.

Ha. So there.

I'm completely nuts. Perhaps I should sign up for yet another 3 week inpatient stint at the "Rage-atorium for crusty curmudgeons".

;D

Hi Brucey. Miss you and your math jokes and stuff. Hope your deal gets easier to bear and that you have hatzlocha in school and all other endeavors. G-d bless you!

Internet decided to start working again. Then my computer decided to download a virus that I can't get rid of. I haven't had time yet to engage in "operation overkill", which means that I'm still using school computers.

How irritating.

Virus gone. Then I got one. One Purim. Then I had a horrible relapse following a fall. Oh, and I was almost killed by a crazy cab driver in the wee hours of the morning a few days ago.
And I'm having (almost) zero luck finding a job for next year. Nothing lined up yet.

Ever feel like the universe is just out to get you for no damn reason whatsoever?


I hate my life.

For me, I thought the post could be abbreviated to:

"Internet started working again. HOW IRRITATING!"

We have become so dependent on the very thing which can kill us. It's scary. Not that I wasn't acting out BEFORE I had internet, but the ease of accessing the shmutz made the addiction much, much worse as time went on.

Bruce, I can imagine how lousy you feel. I haven't really been employed since April of '08. THAT HURTS. Had to fall back on freelance. Hope you find something soon.

Meanwhile, there MUST be some POSITIVE aspects to your life that you can concentrate on. There is STILL a lot of life to love, and I'm sure you have some of that. Maybe go volunteer in a hospital, rehab center or nursing home if you don't believe me. Thats' a surefire way to get one to start counting his BLESSINGS.

Kol Tuv, and have a GREAT SHABBOS!!
No one is so small that he can not give help, and no one is so big that he doesn't need it.

But I don't know who said "perv" is.

Hmm...a perv working for a perv? Is that safe?
