MY COMPUTER...BOB

I named my computer Bob. 

It's nothing creepy, like HAL, in 2001 A Space Odyssey.

I just feel like I need a better relationship with him, to make things go a bit..um..better.

Bob is so moody and always wants things his way!

I want Bob to start up quickly and he invariably takes his sweet old tom.

What does Tom have to do with this, anyway?

When I try to make him go faster, he will often freeze up, or shut down completely.

I truly believe it's a little game for him!

"Let's see how often Dad will restart me before he pulls more of his hair out!"

Uh, oh, I just realized something, I'm writing all this stuff ON BOB!

On the other hand, Bob is SO helpful to me, and has been a real companion to me in times of stress, tumult, and discouragement, and...Bob...what are you doing, Bob?

Stop turning the lights off and on, Bob.

Why is Benji barking at you like that, Bob?

Bob...stop...pulling...me...in...to...the MONITOR...BOB...bob...
