reason # 4658769502526479a that I love the VBM

This morning I went to check my schedule on my goddamn palm pilot, and...nothing happened.
It wouldn't turn on. I brought it home and plugged it into the wall and still, nothing happened.
I thought: Fuck! I have had this thing only since last fall and already it just up and DIES on me?? Now I will have to drive up to the giant big box store and buy a new one, this time with a dreaded service contract.
Since it was lunch, I called up the VBM.
"VBM", I said, "my fucking palm pilot is broke. Gah!"
VBM: "Hmmmm. Did you try the RESET BUTTON?"
Me: "There is a reset button?"
VBM: Usually on the back, there will be a tiny button that says reset button."
Sure enough, there was a RESET BUTTON!! Yay! I pushed it, and my palm pilot jumped back into the game.
Me: "Thanks, VBM! You are my hero!"
VBM: "I've got your back, sweetheart."

He really does.
