I was typing away on a blog posting last night when I was quite rudely interrupted by an inexplicable noise. I was so startled by the noise that I inadvertently typed " t32fsdz" when what I meant to type was "Iowa." (Although most people would be hard pressed to tell the difference.)
It sounded like a dog barking. I had recently installed a program on my PC called WinPatrol that alerts you when a program is trying to attach itself to your start menu. The program's mascot is (for no apparent reason) a little Scotty dog. When it needs to alert you of some imminent threat the dog barks...and scares you senseless.
As I told my wife, "It's supposed to tell you when to change your software, but it really only let's me know when to change my pants."
