Bo Zarts

Just took a walk in the neighborhood. Saw an iMac monitor on the curb for trash pickup or giveaway.

It had a stickum note attached to the front of the monitor. Before getting close enough to read, I assumed that it would say something along the lines of .. "FREE." But noooooo ...

The note was written in a beautiful cursive and said, "All evil begins with some sense of serendipity."

That absolutely made my day.

Most are in thrall to money and power. And screwing the workers so the shareholders and executives can maximize their profits.

I'd grab it. Even if it doesn't boot, check for RAM (probably pulled already), SSD (ditto) and CPU. Even old CPUs can fetch $10 on eBay.
