I’m glad cyber-thiefs haven’t disrupted the world’s chocolate supply. But if they ever do, watch out! The public reaction to a worldwide chocolate shortage will make puppy-stealing seem like child’s play.
Intelligence officials worry about cyber attacks taking control of electrical facilities, a nuclear power plant or financial networks via the internet… Officials said water, sewage and other infrastructure systems were also at risk.
Quotation from Electricity Grid in US Penetrated by Spies by Siobhan Gorman (The Wall Street Journal)
All we ever wanted was everything
All we ever got was cold
Get up, eat jelly
Sandwich bars, and barbed wire
Squash every week into a day.
Lyric from Bauhaus, All We Ever Wanted Was Everything (YouTube)
Although…hanging out and watching you eat jelly and sandwich bars while I have a Granola bar with coffee would be cool, Sera! Oh, the power grids! I digress…really, but I’m deathly allergic to wine. Have a cool Friday!

I prefer my survival kit filled with hard tack. Nothing says ‘end of the world’ like tequila.
Surely if the toilet is overflowing it would be better to get on top of the table rather than under it.
You don’t want to be deep in the doody
The world (cyber and otherwise) is going to hell in a hand-basket. Just let me have one more Easter basket with my chocolate eggs before those photon torpedoes are unleashed.
Overflowing toilets are my worst nightmare!!!
And all I want is chocolate with some piri-piri
Have you ever heard of flying toilets? They’re a modern convenience known in some of the larger slums where one poops in a plastic bag, closes the end, swings round and round then lets fly to somebody else’s place. It’s kind of like what the hedge funds dudes have been up to.
The only acceptable toilet overflow is if it is full of chocolate. Then we wouldn’t mind. (Why don’t they take over the water supply and turn it into choc? or maybe wine?) The world might thank them then!
When they attack, I will built an outhouse…
I really really really don’t like it when toilets don’t do what they’re supposed to. Totally grosses me out.
FYI, in Swahili, the word for toilet is choo. Pronounced cho. Just thought u should know.
I guess it’s just a matter of staying one step ahead of them!
I tell you, we live in a crazy world. Awesome art! I know i always sound redundant but you are really good at what you do.
Lol, funny i missed this one as we did in fact have an attack on our infrastructure here in silicon valley. Last Thursday four counties were without cell phone service and internet for most of the day. Which would have been great if my boss wasn’t such a turd. Kept us sitting doing basically nothing in hopes the systems would come back on. I did get to leave early but i spent 6 freakin hours basically twiddling my thumbs. This made for some amusing scenes like runs on the bank where people were standing in huge lines going in one at a time to get no more than 100 bucks if you knew your account number and people kinda lost as to what to do with no cell phones. I was quite amused by the whole thing.
