Bambi, Googled

Recently a Google photography crew hit a baby deer on Five Points Road in Rush, NY. Sad, but it happens.

But there was worse to come — not for the deer but the Google. Seems the crew uploaded the gore.

So if you Googled Five Points Road you got to watch a bloody baby deer writhe on the center line.  (The pics are gone now. Mama G didn’t raise no fools.)

Biscuit?

We may or may not get a language angle out of this. Initial comments from Mountain View were promising:  “The deer was able to move and had left the area by the time the police arrived.”

Right. And now he’s at a nice farm.

Malware attack!

Evil breached the SL gates today. We report this because it’s so unusual: Our always-connected systems haven’t been compromised in many years.

Evil came to the party as Software Protect 2009, proclaiming itself a searcher and destroyer of spyware. In fact it had only the worst intentions. Run it through the Google for the whole story.

Nasty little beastie

Of course, we knew Software Protect 2009 was a fraud the moment we saw it. Why? Because it burst onto our screen, without invitation, and flung wide its raincoat. Even Gates doesn’t do that any more. Well, not as much.
