| Things I Never Thought I'd Have To Reboot | Computers |
Honestly, did you ever think you'd have to reboot any of the following things?
- Camera
- Cell phone
- Television
- TV Remote
- PDA
My computer is one of the few things that I don't have to reboot anymore.
Coming soon, look forward to having to reboot these:
- Refrigerator
- Car
- Book
- Girlfriend

Cross two off your list of things to come. Ebook readers may need to be rebooted, especially when reading James Joyce.
I had to reboot my car once. Though no basic functions were affected in my case, the possibility of that for a drive-by-wire car where the computer controls throttle, transmission, and brake, led to a factory recall for a firmware update. I'm glad for Toyota's custom software, as this is one application where "Blue Screen of Death" might be just too literal.

I don't think I've ever had to "thing" something. How often do you "thing"? (For those of you reading this after Kevin has [hopefully] edited this entry, it once read "...did you ever thing you'd have to reboot...")
For some folks isn't listing both "girlfriend" and "computer" a little redundant?
