In the office, Wednesday morning

Jess: But still, I didn't want this wallpaper. And every time I try to open a program, all I see is a cross-dressing Bush.

Ann: I heard about that horrible virus! It automatically e-mails itself as an attachment to everyone in your address book.

Jess: Well, it's already got on my computer. How do I get rid of it?

Ann: Vote it out in the next election.

Jess: Hey, knock it off-this is serious!

Ann: Have the IT department run a virus disinfection program. Hopefully, the problem will be gone by 2005.

洁丝：呃，它现在已经跑进我的计算机里了。我要怎么清掉?

小安：下次选举让它败选啰。

洁丝：嘿，别开玩笑了——这是认真的!

小安：请信息部门来扫毒。但愿这个问题能够在二○○五年后消失。
