Two pills good. Four pills bad. Soma us feelies that response deserves an alpha-plus. I'm just no pun. This is a Blair-ing example. Orwell you may be right, you just cant allude logic like that. Bah.
The same question goes for antidepressant drugs. I have spent long hours debating this with a doped up roomate as he gleefully skipped from psychoactive to psychoactive about the benefits and detriments of mommy's little helpers. I know that they got him through some difficult spots (without the psychotic episodes of his adolescence), but they also stifled his writing ability and effictively stopped his songwriting.
He was successful in college and in work thanks to these drugs, but was he truly happy without poetry and music?
I recall stumbling across a good database of 900 MHz cordless phone frequencies ages ago (pre-2.4GHz). I scrambled for my police scanner. For about five minutes, I thought I had died and gone to heaven.
First, I listened to my neighbor talk about how she was not sure if *he* was really *the one*. Next, I fell asleep. Then I remembered that (US) police made (and still make) a habit of broadcasting your full name, social security number, date of birth, driver's license number and your special crime over unsecured, unencrypted long-range wireless networks all day. I could tell you all sorts of information about John Q. Public back when I gave a crap.

"Google's goal with GDrive appears to be infinite storage"
Where can I get a USB disk with unlimited storage? I use some web space for long term files I could need to access when I don't have the space, or when I forget my fob.
I will ask my government to hunt down a criminal, using all of the reconnaissance methods at their disposal to track a petty or grand theft. I will raise hell when they do the same to stop terrorist attacks. Ask not what your country can do for you, but what your Constitution can.

The thief probably resold the laptop, and the investigation will likely be fruitelss despite your ingenuity. Furthermore, if the thief knows how to steal a laptop, they could probably crack the nut when it comes to hijacking an unsecured wireless network. I know your plight. Understand how you have been taken, learn from it, and go on.
Good luck with the cops. Call them and tell them someone stole your car stereo. "What else is new?"
I once declined to charge a customer my diagnosis fee after a geek of said squad had attepted to replace a broken Socket A retainer clip with three tubes of Arctic Silver. After my shop was closed, his manager did not hire me because I was overqualified. Somewhere around here, I have the pictures of the mounds of compound on the poor little Socket A chip.
If you're only using the web, just drop your favorite Linux ( http://linuxiso.org/ ) or your buddy's old copy of Windows onto whatever used hunk of junk you can come by. Public machines are the worst possible place for confidential data. Ask around! Ask a geek! Someone has an old PC collecting dust just begging for the old starving student routine -- I have a closet full of old junk for this exact purpose. Once you can earn the money for a decent laptop you have earned the ability to be safe on the go. Good luck.

So he can't write songs anymore, he can still be a shoe salemen, CEO or a Senator.
Those with foot fetishes, mass cleptomania, or superiority complexes/compulsive lying disorders are not exactly balanced!
The plot thickens, as it is revealed that he is now a psychologist.

Maybe Winston Smith can shed some light on this.

What better place for depression research. No, really. They have great beaches. Such cool stones.
