Waking Up Skippy

That trick where you unplug a laptop and hold the power button down for 30 seconds to clear a locked-up-won't-boot machine is a fscking miracle cure. My only qualm is that the last time I did it, the laptop in question kicked its little heels up in the air shortly thereafter.

I'm really hoping this was just a temporary aberration on Skippy's part, and not an early sign of some horrible problem. Given that the last thing he did before going doorstop last night was show me a picture of a Moscow subway station (gorgeous, btw) and ask me if I liked it, I'm tempted to blame the KGB. ;-)
