You forgot a few more...

Your screen started flickering at AM hours but was sometimes OK at PM,

Though the fonts were crisp when it's flickered, but blurred when not,

OpenOffice was sometimes starting up as minimized when fonts are crisp,

There was coming a deep continual sound much like the foo in fool, when
OpenOffice starts up maximized in PM hours when the fonts are blurred,

Mouse appeared to become sluggish when OpenOffice was started up as
minimized while it was flickering, to the point that it was dropping down
the edge of the desk while scrolling,

Strangely, KDE help was disappearing from the menu when mouse got sluggish
at AM hours, but Konqueror was not opening otherwise. Nevertheless, joy
stick was OK unless it was both crisp at PM hours and OOo was maximized.

Hah! At last something was OK. Take an advice: shut down your computer,
get your joy stick, play with it. Enjoy.

Oh, no!
