Never tell a Witch her Computer Can't be Fixed

Tech Support can be a thankless and dangerous line of work.

Far too many sugary confections are eaten during the Christmas season, so I thought I'd make the problem worse by leading you to this recipe for chocolate pudding, posted by Kelly Powers. There's something peaceful and soothing about chocolate pudding; it could almost substitute for that long, cramped session in the meditation room, for those of you who meditate.

Personally, I find that a friendly demolition machine is just as soothing as meditation; after a period of time spent watching one of these beauties go through its paces, I feel calm and oceanic, and ready to demolish my neighbor's gazebo anything.

For all of you demolition-machine watchers out there, the picture features the common 2003 Hitachi ZX500LC UHD, with distinctive orange coloration. As you can see, the Hitachi has adapted so that it can feed on tall structures. It migrates in October, and mates in November, and again in May. The female lays six or seven eggs, of which, three or four will survive, unless there are a lot of robins and crows around.

Bob, bob bobbin around....
