Whew! ...some #$%*!_at_!! only found out a about my selling that system
to the scrapper and not the little-known, unused, ENIAC clone that was
found in the basement of a warehouse sold as gov't surplus. However,
would you believe that these were just honest $^%^!*%$_at_! mistakes and
that I was conned by the *#$&*#! b*&^%rds? ;-)

Who has given up his favorite words to his students who surprise their
parents with their new vocabulary; he is then never heard uttering
another bad word in the presence of adults. A few months later, he
finds this lifestyle to not be profitable enough and starts the cult
of the Sellamites who tell of his most blessed holiness, and his
spiritual teachings and revelations, in airports and strip shopping
centers around the world, while selling flowers and cheap PC-clones
running MS-Windows for him out of the back of decrepit minivans also
used to recruit new followers.
