"You" should be "U"

Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Easy, once you have the solution Big Grin | :-D

Superfluous = over (in the sense of Extra)
horse unable to rise = Cast

Nebulous = Cloudy = Overcast.

A horse that can't get up by itself is said to be "cast".

Nah, you have to wait for the floppy disk to be ready - otherwise it all just gets buffered and your keyboard will start to beep each time you touch it.

The only instant messaging I do involves my middle finger.

Easily resolved: just pull out the keyboard plug and reboot.

Ooo! You don't want to do that! There is (or was in them days) a soldered in fuse on the MB (it looked like s green, bandless resistor) on the keyboard line. If you plugged the KB in while the power was on, there was a good chance the fuse would blow - and your PC would see a keyboard again until you got out the solder sucker and welding iron...and as far as I know it's still there...
