My computer is fritzing, the screen turning to mush every hour or so with a demand to be shut down. It's a hardware problem, too complicated to go into here (even supposing I actually understood technology) but I thought it would be a good time to try out my Atrios impression:

Until then, I'm going to wean myself gradually by using my daughter's FireFox-free computer. Expect many spelling errors as I compose posts in Safari. (What's up with TypePad not working properly in Safari anyway? Maybe I should have Atrios talk to them.)
