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.

Just an afternoon off, not a dirt nap!

I was thinking in the “cross country drive” type scenario...

No rest for the wicked, and the good don’t need any...I have a patio full of boxes full of “stuff.” Since I’m the only one here, I have the honor of emptying those boxes and trying to clean up the patio.

*sigh*

Tomorrow, I’m going to buy some tubs and see how many of those boxes I can empty. I need to get everything either in here, or in tubs so I can cover them with the tarp for the duration.

With luck, I’ll be able to sleep in tomorrow...at least until 5:30...;o]

Hiya!

How are things in MI? I bet you didn’t even notice the cold this winter, did you?...;o]

I’m back.

What needs doing, other than setting some rodent traps?

Here...hang this on that wall over there, will you? I think that’s the perfect spot for it. Or maybe it would look better on this smaller wall? Wait. Maybe opposite the mirror?

"Could you give Wednesday her pill?"

Two weeks preparation time, four weeks recovery ...

Is that okay with you?

Who was your slave this time last year?

When I ask my wife that question, she says, “You were.”

See? I told you the beer would work. Moving is easy.

Now all you have to do is figure out how to get the truck out of the garage, since they put it in there sideways.

I’M not gonna move that truck! Whoever put it in there can do it. I might just drive it right through the wall...

You are cordially invited to be the Official Representative from Conspiracystan.

You will be given esteemed offices in the valued Tower Facility of the Undead Thread Flying Castle, where you may look out upon the teeming minions and deliciously while away your hours plotting mischief like the rest of us.

The present occupants will be unceremoniously booted out, and perhaps made into galley slaves in the kitchen.

We've gotta do some modifications to it.

It's amazing how slow that thing is off the starting line.
