now, HP is adding a bit of ritual to bring a sense of fulfillment and
poetry
to your life. Think back, didn't they tell you to unplug the unit
before turning
it upside down and rocking it back and forth? The rocking back and
forth
consumed the time and made you participate in the healing process.


Back in the dark ages when I was very young, I used to pick up
artifacts on my
restless travels. Fertility figurines from an excavation for the
Olympics, gold
jewelry from the altiplano that had been buried for generations, masks
and ritual pieces
from lost damp, dusky villages near the equator. When I'd return to
the states I'd
sell these pieces to museums and collectors. With masks and ritual
figures,
you'd watch the bead of sweat form on their brow as they asked, "Has
it been danced?"
They meant, of course, was it used in a ceremony. If a carver made two
exact
pieces, one which was carried around the village during the harvest
festival and
the other not, the figure or mask that had been 'danced' was worth ten
times the other.


Now, I work in a city while I raise my daughter. Coworkers call me to
help them with
their computer problems. I show them the solution and I teach them
that they must
say "BOINK" when they hit the enter key at the end of the process. If
they don't say it, I
gently make them repeat the process.


Sometimes when I'm walking thru the offices, I hear a cheerful "BOINK"
from a cubicle.

I know that somewhere someone has healed their computer     and
somewhere a
computer has been danced.
