Occasionally I will hear an unfamiliar little sound come from my computer. I like to think it’s the sound effect from some unseen beneficent spirit bestowing a blessing on me, but if it IS that, I remain unaware as to the nature of the specific benefit I have received.
It COULD be something the beneficent spirit has averted, like an asteroid that was supposed to come down on my head or something. Or it could just be the sound notifying me of an incoming e-mail or instant message.
