An Optimistic Computer


As I was attempting to compress a large file on the computer I received this status message. Typically PCs just lock up and don't give me the time of day on something of this size. But the Mac is so optimistic. (If you do the math it comes out to be something around 231,ooo years).

and comes as no surprise to me that you did the math...

looks like we didn't see you yesterday at the church party. the lower right corner did not prevail...

i had to do the math... the party was good - a great time for fellowship and sweating off a few extra pounds at the same time.
maybe it is lack of sleep but i don't know what "lower right corner" is

(I don't think Allison was there for the lower right corner conversation). It was a heredity chart conversation: 50% chance we would go to the party, 50% they would go to the party... so we figured the chance of us all being there was 25% - like the recessive gene winning out in the lower right corner of a heredity chart.

dork = me
