    I have always enjoyed &lt;i&gt;Eats, Shoots &amp;amp; Leaves&lt;/i&gt; by Lynn Truss because it comically explains the importance of punctuation on intended meaning.  I was looking around the internet today to see if I could get myself in a better mood when I stumbled upon this great image:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;img src=&quot;../blog_imgs/comma_needed.jpg&quot; width=&quot;350&quot; height=&quot;263&quot; alt=&quot;Comma needed?&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;i&gt;WHAT&lt;/i&gt; is in that Blizzard?  Seems like a throwback to Swift&#039;s &quot;Modest Proposal&quot; to me. &lt;img src=&quot;http://z-issue.com/blog/templates/default/img/emoticons/wink.png&quot; alt=&quot;;-)&quot; style=&quot;display: inline; vertical-align: bottom;&quot; class=&quot;emoticon&quot; /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you found the image funny, maybe you should check out &lt;i&gt;Eats, Shoots &amp;amp; Leaves&lt;/i&gt;, or even &quot;Semantricks&quot; by Lewis M. Gediman.&lt;br /&gt;

    You may look at the title and wonder why I didn&#039;t post this topic under &quot;Computers&quot; or even the &quot;Linux&quot; subtopic.  My reasoning is that this isn&#039;t really any type of discussion relating to computers, but rather just an image that I found to be priceless.  Instead of just making their &quot;server down for maintenance&quot; page bland, they chose to use this image to sum it up.  When I saw it, I thought that I was at Denny&#039;s getting ready to order by the &quot;point-to-the-image&quot; method.  &lt;img src=&quot;http://z-issue.com/blog/templates/default/img/emoticons/laugh.png&quot; alt=&quot;:-D&quot; style=&quot;display: inline; vertical-align: bottom;&quot; class=&quot;emoticon&quot; /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Click for full size:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

    Hello all,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A friend of mine sent me this really funny video yesterday.  For all of us &quot;computer nerds,&quot; this should put some things in perspective.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Monk Tech Support:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;embed src=&quot;../blog_vids/player/flvplayer.swf&quot; width=&quot;470&quot; height=&quot;320&quot; bgcolor=&quot;#ffffff&quot; allowscriptaccess=&quot;always&quot; allowfullscreen=&quot;true&quot; flashvars=&quot;file=http://z-issue.com/blog_vids/monk_tech_support.flv&quot; /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If for some reason the embedded player above doesn&#039;t work for you, here&#039;s a link to it on YouTube:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;A href=&quot;http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0z84F1fHABw&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0z84F1fHABw&lt;/A&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
