computers suck^2

Yesterday morning I sat down at my computer,
turned it on, grabbed me a fresh cup of coffee
(by the way our families have turned us into
coffee junkies...how did we ever get out of bed
without it?), and started hammering away at
my work. 10 minutes later you could smell smoke...
I know I work hard but could my computer be over
heating? I "googled" the issue and got all kinds of
responses like "leave the room and call the fire dept!"
or "get the hose ready!"...really?

Well shortly after that my computer crashed. And shortly after
that, CompUSA called my cell. You guys are good.
Too good to be true. Those Mother f-ers didn't
call because they telepathically knew my computer had
just died; they called to tell me that they have NOT sent my laptop
off to get fixed. "you got to be fucking kidding me"
I told the geek on the other line, but nope.

Now i'm really pissed. 1) my computer won't turn on.
2) my laptop hasn't left the shelf to get fixed (so I could
have been using it the past two weeks instead of this POS)
3) I now have to call around to get some immediate attention
4) we rely on Computers way too much...no computer = no
work. what year did that start?

Luckily for us the Rockies made the playoffs and most playoff
game take place in the middle of the day. And Lucky for us
the game was on just down the street from the computer shop.

So sometimes things happen for a reason but some reasons
just don't add up. 6000X84X23/2 does not = 1.
