I have an entirely new theory about how to add cheer to the universe. Every time I log into Facebook, someone or some thing wants to know what new "device" I'm using. I'm not; it's the same old device. I could feel annoyed by this blip, this midge nip, this technological equivalent of a daily burp. Instead, when asked to identify my computer, I now type "M." Then I get my e mail, "Facebook login from M." Try it. You'll be pleased. Or you could see what "Q" will give you. A pen that doubles as a sword, possibly, or an ejector seat for deans.
