A day in the life of the slipper


"Ello there. I am just a shoe. Just a humble slipper. My home is in a closet in Chipping Norton, England. I am rarely worn, only used for Sunday morning drives to the Shoppes. It is a pain, really.  Gas, clutch, brake. I get incredibly disoriented; then before you know it, I am mashed into the carpet, traveling at warp speed. My master is Jeremy Clarkson. He is of the fame of Top Gear. I have never attended the show, which is quite a drag. However, living with this wonderful man is quite glorious. However, his closet is dark and smelly.

         I do, however, appreciate him. He rescued me from those idiots in Foot Locker. With all of those flashy, high-topped basketball shoes and all of those “cool kids” buying those stupid flat brimmed hats. He treats me with absolute kindness, I am always by his bedside, ready and waiting.

Prayer to the Tech Department about macs

Tech;

Please stop using macs. PC's are far superior in every facet. On a mac, ALL windows office applications are incredibly slow and contain many glitches. For example; it is near impossible to open up Microsoft Word with out getting the Spinning Ball of Death (SBOD). This is not only frustrating, but time consuming. I have missed chunks of biology notes because of the SBOD, and my grades reflect that; as they aren't very good. PC's on the other hand, run Microsoft Office seamlessly. Yet another advantage of PCs is that they are far cheaper. For instance, a dell studio 13' laptop with 50% more RAM (6gb vs 4 gb) the same exact intel processor, and a 320 gb hd vs a 250 gb hd. The Dell rings in at 1,324 vs the Mac at 1,599. That is $200 per laptop less for the Dell. Figuring our school educates about 1,000 people, that is a savings of 200,000! All for a better performing laptop! Therefore, PC's are better than Macs.
