Crítica de la boina pura
Estaba yo tan preocupado en hacer un buen trabajo sobre terrorismo para mi asignatura de Relaciones Internacionales. Tan saturado de leer cosas de aquí y allá, de reflexionar. Supongo que Irenita, que anda trabajando en lo mismo, y además concretamente en lo que origina el terrorismo, tiene que estar tan concentrada en ello como yo. Pues tranquila, Ire, que no necesitamos hacer el trabajo. Recortaré de la prensa de hoy las declaraciones de Mariano "You Lose" Rajuá diciendo que no hay que buscar el por qué del terrorismo, y que todos los terrorismos son iguales, se lo entregaremos al profesor, y sacaremos matrícula de honor sin siquiera habernos despeinado.
¿Ahora quieren también que el terrorismo se convierta en un dogma de fé y no en un problema real que, mal que les pese, podríamos solucionar con la cabeza, que no a cabezazos?
Citando al erudito de Shakes (y sin embargo mal educado) colega del interfecto : "Manda huevos".

Microsoft's Dancing Paper Clip turned violent last week and nearly killed
a university student testing a new Windows-based human-computer interface.
The victim is expected to make a full recovery, although psychiatrists
warn that the incident may scar him emotionally for life. "You can bet
this kid won't be using Windows or Office ever again," said one shrink.
The victim had been alpha-testing CHUG (Computer-Human Unencumbered
Groupware), a new interface in which the user controls the computer with
force-feedback gloves and voice activation.
"I was trying to write a term paper in Word," he said from his hospital
bed. "But then that damned Dancing Paper Clip came up and started annoying
me. I gave it the middle finger. It reacted by deleting my document, at
which point I screamed at it and threatened to pull the power cord. I
didn't get a chance; the force-feedback gloves started choking me."
"We told Clippit it had the right to remain silent, and so on," said a
campus police officer. "The paperclip responded, 'Hi, I'm Clippit, the
Office Assistant. Would you like to create a letter?' I said, 'Look here,
Mr. Paperclip. You're being charged with attempted murder.' At that point
the computer bluescreened."
