What do you want to do tonight?
An actual spam subject: “naarf Windows 2003 Server Enterprise”

Bad Boys
I am thoroughly sick of the phenomenon I call the Draco Malfoy Effect. This is the process by which young (and not-so-young) women become convinced that not only are evil bad-boy types desirable, but completely reformable. Liking the maverick is nothing new for the Hollywood-hypnotized masses, especially seeing as how he’s so often played by a desirable star. However, liking the villain–the kind who has not yet been definitively shown to possess a heart–to the point that you believe he can be saved through sex with either a) you, b) your Mary Sue, or c) the ingenue of the cast is, to my thinking, simply bizarre.
I’d love to have a discussion on this. Please comment. (Even if you think I’m the one with her head on crooked.)
Nobody has dreams about…..

Cross-platform?
This is from an ad for Comcast cable-modem service that arrived in today’s mail. I almost threw it out, but then I noticed something very odd about the middle picture on the front:

Wow – that’s the first time I’ve seen Windows XP running on an iMac!
I guess with Comcast you have to fire up VirtualPC just to run Internet Explorer. 😉
