Ire fortiter quo nemo ante iit

In 1953 Johnny Stabler and other gang members of the Black Rebels Motorcycle Club drifted into Carbonville and ever after the Thunderbird 6T was a machine only for the wild ones of society. A little known fact is that the seventh member of the BRMC was a clever spanner named Leo Villa (aka the Prime Directive) - better known for his association with birds in the genus Sialia of the thrush family Turdidae. He can be seen behind Johnny in the photo below.

I ask myself why I am installing IE7. Just because it does tabbed browsing? Just so the computer will stop bugging me about it? Probably. I only use Mozilla anyway. Now that Bill Doors has quit as CEO of Softromic I bet that they will turn into a ruthless, unprincipled, monopolistic and tyrannical empire. Oh hang on - that already happened in 1992.
