T0p D0g Reloaded

So what do you do if you get a bug in your computer? IN not ON. A real live stock bug, not a Trojan or other equally nasty e-stuff.

It happens in Romania, somewhere in the Land of Dracula. A bug got inside my boyfreind’s laptop through the USB port. The initial mortification of my better half was quickly followed by frustration and hatred. After a couple years of peaceful cohabitation in his cockroach infested apartment, this has been it. Eternal wrath is to be unleashed, my boyfriend swears. Especially since he was under some pressing deadlines of working online. But cockroach still inside the laptop remains switched off for fear of frying the motherboard.

A trip to the local service is being planned, as we speak.

I confess I have been occasionally rofling during our phone conversation. I even suggested using the blow drier or the ancient “smoke them out” technique.

“There is no ist’s in English!”

“Ist?”

“Is.”

“Ist.”

“Is.”

“Ist.”

“Is. Is. Is!”

OK, she didn’t get me in part because we were over the phone. But bottom line is my mum has started studying English. The conversation above - and you can guess who is who - was followed by the “I, you, he/she, we, you, they” conversation. They, that is z with the tip of your toungue against the upper teeth. And so on. I am smiling. I have to look for the posts about my mum learning Windows, and our typical conversation generated by the old printer.
