Sunday Funnies: I Shot The Gateway

(Sung to the Bob Marley/Eric Clapton tune “I Shot the Sheriff”)

dead-computer_550Ok, so the picture is a Dell, not a Gateway, but Dell doesn’t fit the lyric.  The story is about a man named Lucas Hitch of Colorado Springs, who found a new way to deal with the infamous Windows “Blue Screen of Death.”  He just carried the computer into the alley, whipped out his 9mm Hi-Point handgun, and fired off a clip into the malfunctioning PC.

For his troubles he was arrested and cited by the police for discharging a firearm in the city limits.  A picture of the victim is to the right.
