Using Live Mice...

Posted on 03/20/2007 12:30:33 PM PDT by John Robinson

We technicians here in the Free Republic server room experimented with real mice attached to our computers. Unfortunately, not one mouse survived being plugged-in for more than a few minutes. We've reverted back to the hamsters, they're more durable and they know how to dance to the electronic pop music we enjoy.

You should notice a significant improvement in response time.

Go go hamsters.

I have a simple rule: Never feed penguins before or after midnight. It's great for the pocketbook.

Out of here for the night...

Urinary tract infection. Pills twice a day for ten days - oh boy! - but the symptoms should improve fairly quickly. She'll have to stay in the garage for a while, anyway, but it's newly cleaned, and not too hot.

Good News. Anything in the garage she can destroy out of boredom?

We had a cat once that had a fetish for peeing on plastic. Plastic tarps, Plastic bags, nylon umbrellas...

He's our "outside" cat now...

I suspect she's not going to like being in Coventry, without the reassuring hum of the tower and the clicking of the modem. But she may enjoy the quiet.

At least it's not her kidneys! And I bet it's a relief for you to know, too.

No, it is accurate. It's just funny to actually see what it looks like. I don't see all that's going on while in the driver's seat. :-)

Bad weather today. Both knees, left hand, and my right shoulder are killing me. I should probably pop some motrin, but I'm fairly apathetic to the sensation at this point...
