I didn't realize at the time that what I was doing was cruel.  Really!  I didn't!

Now and then, Greg and I catch Kim Komando on the radio.  Not on purpose -- we just happen upon her show while driving around on Saturdays or whenever she's on.  Greg is way smarter than Kim Komando and it's fun to watch him get all indignant at the things she says.

A couple of weeks ago I looked up her website and saw that she offered images which could be set as a computer background.  'Ah-ha,' I thought.  'This will be an awesome joke to play on Greg, since he loves her so much.'

I sort of forgot about the whole thing until this weekend when it suddenly popped into my head and I asked him what resolution his monitor is running.  He gave me a quirky look because, yeah, that's a totally-out-of-left-field question for me, but I was prepared.  When he asked why I wanted to know, I told him I was just curious.  I even went on to ask him if it makes him nuts when he's trying to work on a client's computer and their resolution is set differently, etc., etc.  I know.  A great cover, right?

This morning, opportunity finally presented itself.  I slithered downstairs and set his background to this.  I thought he'd be appreciative.  After all, she is 'America's Digital Goddess.'  What's not to like, right? 

Shortly after Greg headed downstairs to begin the workday, I had to go down to check the freezer, and he was, I think, pretty freaked out.  He was all, 'Somebody put a big picture of Kim Komando on my desktop.'  I snickered and asked, 'What are you talking about?'  Exasperation reared its head.  'Kim Komando.  Somebody put a picture of her on my desktop.'

An alarm sounded in my head. He was afraid someone hacked in -- a pretty reasonable assumption, actually, since I never ever touch his machine if I can help it.

Oops. 

So I 'fessed up.

Sorry, Greg.  I promise not to taunt you with Kim Komando for the rest of the day.

Too funny, Michelle!  This reminds me of his father sitting on the couch here at home, watching the home improvement shows, telling them what they are doing wrong!  Haha!  Some things never change!
