A mouse???? Mes, are you telling us that's a cause for a topic for a thread? Are things that boring out there in the desert? Did the gold mine cave in? :D

Ok, let's get on to business, as we all need a update about your recent absence. I have missed you little buddy.------- :cry: :cry: ------your long lost Jeep pal...----6--

I'm not all that adventurous lately either. Was talking to a friend on the phone, I asked if hed had any fun recently (he hadnt), I had to think,... about all I could come up with was I'd had chocolate milk after a mexican dinner the other day.

And sometimes I need to take a nap after that much excitement.


This severe pain and pain meds nonsense gets really old.

Me too.

One handy thing to do - USE YOUR MOUSE WITH YOUR LEFT HAND (at least if you are normally 'right-handed') - it leaves your dominant hand free to jot down a phone number, or draw your sidearm if the zombies attack while you're using your computer. It also makes carpal tunnel less likely due to your splitting the work between hands.

Using a mouse left-handed is easy - takes about an hour to get good at it, even for a very-non-ambidextrous guy like me.

I do about half the mouse stuff on the laptop with the left hand. I keep the right arm back behind the back of the chair to keep the shoulder from contracting too much from trying to keep it from hurting.

I was talking to a buddy I used to camp with in the past, I said I wasnt as tough as I used to be, I didnt like sleeping on the ground much any more. He said "I'm as tough as I used to be, I just want to be tough at home now".

Years ago, the version of Windows on my office computer would let you re-map the mouse orientation, and I had a completely compu-inept office mate who used my computer to write up his drill log reports. I used to tell the mouse that "up" was really "left" and such.... I'll give the guy credit for figuring out how to make it work rather than ask me to un-do it :mrgreen: That job was so dull we had to make our own fun, pathetic as it sounds now :mrgreen:

Had you been tripping? :shock:

I used to have a stationary mouse where you rolled the ball with your thumb to move the arrow that curses on your screen. It didn't take me long to understand why it was called a curser. :lol:
