More Silliness: this time from Saint Silicon Excerpted from THE COMPUTER CONNECTION, a radio program, from a couple of years ago. HAL-lelujah!...Continue reading

Jeffrey Armstrong, aka Saint $ilicon, is the founder of C.H.I.P., the Church of Heuristic Information Processing, the world's first Computer Religion, the Hunt and Peck Method of Salvation, the world's first user-friendly religion. Like the prophets of old, he came from humble origins in the Midwest. An apocryphal story relates that his first computer came with a Loser's Manual. He worked for years in the Data-dungeons of Silicon Valley, toiling in sales and marketing positio...ns. Finally, after years of austerity and penance, he bought a Macintosh (for the Macrighteous shall inherit the Earth). And because he paid full price, great things were destined to happen. Late one night as Jeffrey worked on a word-processing file, lightning struck the satellite dish on his roof. When he awoke, the "Keyboard Prayer" was on the screen in 18 point Times Roman along with the command to write the Binary Bible. Thus he was "Bored Again" and was renamed and saved as Saint $ilicon. He immediately quit his job and retired to a cave in the Santa Cruz mountains and began writing The Binary Bible as it was dictated to him by the Giver Of Data, G.O.D. And so a ray of hope came FORTH for all those with a Terminal Illness, for all who suffer from Data Distress, the D-based and D-filed who have lost their beloved Data. Now a great revival is sweeping the world. From that moment on it was GIGO- Garbage in Gospel Out, or to quote P. C. Barnum: "There's a Seeker Born Every Minute." and in the end, everything will be Right Justified!!! --- from book's back cover https://www.amazon.com/Binary-Bible-Saint-Sili//0945130007 See more
