I mustered up every ounce of diplomacy and restraint I had when I recently listened to my friend talk about her new laptop, learning Vista and how it's supposed to be "just like Mac." She's like this big executive person (see this post) so who am I to tell her what to do or preach about the error of her ways?
We all know that I am ga-ga about everything Apple and that not a day goes by that I don't think about how my MacBook Pro doesn't freeze up, never needs to be rebooted and does not require that I know anything about Windows except the Jeld-Wen kind. (It's kind of like how I feel every month when I DON'T get my period since my hysterectomy...I celebrate its absence!)
So I was thrilled to pieces when three of my favorite things came together in a news article sent to me by JoAnn, a friend for almost 15 years whom I have never met*!!!
Three favorite things:
- forensic detective work
- all things Mac
- justice
Article:
Stolen Mac Helps Nab Burglary Suspects

* I was going to expand on how it is that I've "known" JoAnn for 15 years but have never met her, but I decided that I'll save that for a Thursday Thirteen of 13 Best Friends I've Never Met. In the meantime, you can visit JoAnn's daughter's blog in which she praises her Mom for giving her a great upbringing and sequins, because JoAnn, like Amy, inexplicably does not have a blog!!!
Well, I've met JoAnn and she really is a very special person. Hope you get that opportunity someday. Love your blog, by the way.
