Sat, 24 Jul 2010 17:08:00 -0700

Many years ago when I was a copier technician my boss wouldalways tell us to push our companies supplies, paper, toneretc.. Of course they wanted to sell more supplies and make moremoney but their techniques were very questionable. Just likeprinters you could go out and purchase generic supplies and someworked better than others naturally. Well the supplies that wesold were also mostly generic, however, they were branded withour companies name and logos. Here's where the sneakiness comesin. When a customer complained about a repair cost estimate wewere told to blame it on their inferior generic supplies and tofurther that the repair would have been much cheaper if theywere using our over-priced supplies. I explained this to many customers on many occasions whiledesperately trying to suppress my rage at being forced to handthis BS to unknowing customers while I knew full well that whatI was telling them was absolutely untrue.

Fri, 23 Jul 2010 09:16:00 -0700

This is Paris and it is raining, which is as it should be. Parisrain is not as the rain of other cities. It is softer,benevolent. It caresses, rather than soaks. Perhaps the mainreason I come to Paris is because of the food. Not that I am atrue gourmet. More a gourmand. It is perfectly possible to spendan arm and a leg on food in Paris. I am still in a state ofshock after paying . for a single glass of beer. Granted, Iwas sitting on the pavement on the Champs Elysees and granted, Icould have sat there all day. But I am still in shock. NormallyI steer well away from such high-priced nonsense. When you go toParis ' and you should go at least once in a lifetime ' makeyour own discoveries. I am assured it is possible to get a badmeal in Paris. It simply has never happened to me. At thefollowing restaurants you will only get great meals. First andforemost, La Crmerie Polidor.

Fri, 02 Apr 2010 00:09:09 -0700

AntivirusPlasma is another program pretending to be an antivirus, but in reality is a rogue antispyware program. AntivirusPlasma is not new. In fact, AntivirusPlasma is a clone of Antivirus . AntivirusPlasma can install through Trojan exploits or via spam email, porn websites or file sharing without your knowledge. Some signs that AntivirusPlasma is on your computer are that your wallpaper and desktop settings are changed, you have unusual system tray icons and desktop shortcuts, your web browser home page has changed, and there is an irritating beeping coming from your speakers. You will also get sexually explicit porn pop-ups. The first hint that AntivirusPlasma is on your computer, though, is the pop-ups telling you that you are infected and only AntivirusPlasma can save you.
