overboard

I don't know, but I may have gone a little overboard.

It's been known to happen.

Please take this as an apology if you need to, Coco.

Now leave me and my computer alone!

the boogieman

In 1797, Francisco de Goya did this creepy etching called,

"Que viene el Coco".

a.k.a., "Here comes the boogieman".

As far as I'm concerned,

spammers, hackers, and all manner of ghosts in the machine

are boogiemen.

Disguised as "Sharon", it paid a visit to Celeste Bergin

in a nefarious plot to purloin her art files.

In my case, the thug has grabbed my email files,

Don't try to send email to me;

I'll get it, but I won't be able to identify it or open it.

What a jerk.

By the way, I never knew the boogieman's name is Coco.

Did you?
