There I was 4:32 PM starting to reinstall Windows XP, again. Just after inputting my
541 area code in the network information part of setup, I was all of a sudden
peddling my 1972 Western Bicycle Company 'Webco' 10 speed through the country on a
nice sunny day with perhaps a few billowing white clouds meandering across the sky.
So idyllic I decided to get off the bike and walk through the fields of soft
billowing grass. Heat-soak was almost non-exsistent for some reason I couldn't
explain. I took my helmet off and jumped and joyfully threw the helmet way up in the
air and caught it giggling and tumbling down a short hill. I stood up and a sense of
deja-vue started to come over me and I was standing in exactly the Microsoft®
Bliss.bmp desktop. That's when I started to itch and I looked down and there were
ticks on my shoes and crawling up my legs and every blade of grass was crawling with
chiggers. Chiggers and ticks were starting to bite in and feast on me everywhere.
With every step I was stirring up clouds of black biting flies and I started running
and screaming with terror and almost fell off my chair and knocked the keyboard onto
the floor. It was 4:51 PM and the computer was asking to set the desktop
resolution...
