My daughter poured a glass of water into my keyboard! So, before you smarty pants make fun of my typing, remeber that I only have 3 claws per hand AND a keyboard that only types in Sandscit now!

Fixed.


Hehe, I feel for ya tho. My son, when he was just about a year old, decided to be like daddy and put things in the front of the PC. I came home from work to find my credit cards jammed in the FDD and CDROM....


On the bright side, it gave me an excuse to upgrade

i smell a frame-job!!


Ken: "look honey, Little Ken' destroyed my PC."

Mrs. Ath: "hmm, that's odd. there seems to be another credit card up here where he can't reach."

Ken: "i suspect there might have been a second preschooler on the grassy knoll"


Mrs. Ath probably responded with a sharp, exhaling "fine." which Ken' (as well as any other married SWGer would do) translated that to mean "ok dear, playyour game and be happy"

Sanscrit did we mean?


And Calc, you left out the fact you are a product of American public schools of the past generation. They teach little other than the skills needed to get a job at Mickey Dee's.


Repeat after me - "Would you like fries with that?"

I knew better than that...I haven't used the word Sanskrit (AH HA! Mr. Smrty spelled it wrong, too, at least according to Merriam Webster) since college . Try to be witty and there is someone there to smack you around .

Yes, there was a reference to Homer S in my post.

Reminds me of a joke i learned in college. (yes i was a physics major)

The physics major asks ......."Why does it work"
The engineering major asks...."How does it work?"
The buisness major asks......."When will it work?"
The liberal arts major asks..."Would you like fries with that?"

So true, so true.

Of course, MiniKen is now a fair bit older and asking for his own PC. And, being the good dad that I am, of COURSE I will build him one... especially as that means upgrading one of the spare machines under the desk here and giving him the, ahem, legacy machine with the older parts...

And then there's broadband, which he NEEDS for school work, y'know...

It's a hard life

I once spilled energy drink on my keyboard and after that it turned into an ultra cool encoded keyboard lol. Whenever you hit a key, it would also type every key immediately around the one you had hit. So for example, if you hit G, it would type... GFVBHYT. It was headache city considering the amount of speed in my system.
