Web Log for 10.14.26

Well, laptop, is this the day you turn into a pumpkin? Apparently not. So far it's running Microsoft "security" garbageware, which is about as annoying as Microsoft "Edge Updates," but it is running. Let it run while it will, I suppose. 

Books

Bogus book covers remind me of Love's Reckless Rash, a hilarious romance by "Rosemary Cartwheel." I read it and thought of a series, starting with a teen romance called Love's Acne Angst and ending with a blue-collar one called Love's Zippy Z. (Datsun, of course...say what you like about the Camaro Z28, those cars were overpriced.) If you'd like to read these stories, let me know. Meanwhile, for these parodies, the covers are probably enough...
