"Murphy was an optimist!"

Posted by Doug McCaughan in : Daily Life“It’s said that ‘power corrupts,’ but actually it’s more true that power attracts the corruptible. The sane are usually attracted by other things than power. When they do act, they think of it as service, which has limits. The tyrant, though, seeks mastery, for which he is insatiable, implacable.”
? David Brin, The Postman

Posted by Doug McCaughan in : Daily LifeAh! Nothing begins a Monday quite like fraudulent charges and canceling the credit card with the number you really liked that happened to have every subscription and recurring charges attached to it. This will be a good way to cancel some unnecessary subscriptions.
