You just don't know how happy I am- I cracked the code! My laptop had a trojan virus, which I've been having a difficult time removing for the past week or so. Even the Norton-provided Symantec removal tool wasn't the panacea. Part of the difficulty was the sheer fact that I couldn't send the trojan virus into the recycyling bin (intuitively, this made the most sense considering the fact that I knew the exact location of the bloody sucker); therefore, I put my laptop into "safe mode" and was able to remove the virus manually by sending it to the recycle bin at that mode. It was soooo GLORIOUS sending that biatch to the bin!
At any rate, I'm just letting you readers know in advance about this catastrophic trojan virus (it, in essence, behaves like a Trojan horse and disguises itself from anti-viral software as "safe" material to have in your hard drive) that squirms its way into your Microsoft files and can allow other malicious malware into your operation system.
PHEW! I'm back in commission. I am now comforted by the fact that my system is scot-free. Plus, you DO NOT want to pay for the associated fees in speaking to a Norton professional; those fools charge mad bank just to ask a dang question.

I wish I were a Jew
The blog post wasn't an anti-Semitic prelude to a tirade, nor was it a means to start a ruckus (I have some dear Jewish friends)- it was more of an attention-grabber on the latest NY Times article I was reading: http://www.nytimes.com/2009/02/22/business/worldbusiness/22japan.html?_r=1&em.
We all know too well of the leery economic blight set before us and it's just replaying in my head like a broken record. I couldn't escape the fact that this article really emphasizes the point of being frugal and making do with what you have.
...a story that I'm not really familiar with since the past two or three years of my life have been wrought with materialistic desires and has manifested itself into too large of a wardrobe and drawers full of clothes I hardly wear- not to mention, lately I've transformed into a jeans, t-shirt, and cap-type gal.
I envy the Jewish approach to conserving resources and being especially scrupulous when it comes to finances. Why couldn't I be born into a Jewish family?! I know I'd have more money in the bizzank, that's for darn sure!
Pinch dem pennies y'all,

8 o'clock coffee
I saw on Yahoo! this morning that this coffee tops 'em all-even Starbucks- and for cheaper. What a way to bring in the new year with the all-too cliche sour economy but a great cup of coffee.
