Dear Zod, but I am getting tired of having to kill two or three popup ads for every page of an ezboard I load. Especially since my mouse is crap and I have to spin it around in convulsive little circles around the damn toolbar button to right-click on it, then spin around in little circles so I can click 'close'. And even that only works half the time.

I took a look at my brother's class schedule today. They literally chopped the classroom numbers off. Gone. Poof. He has course number, section number, instructor's name, course name... but no clue where he's supposed to go. And they did this on purpose, according to the lady at the schedule table at his registration. Um... the hell? Sonora HS is on farkling ants.

Heh... my system now makes Lord Buckley whooshing noises whenever I minimize/maximize/restore up/down a window. Had to turn a 7-minute mp3 into a 78Mb .wav to get those whooshes, but it was worth it.

Looking at that link makes me sad. I want those albums. Filesharing may be convenient and free, but there's just something neet about having the physical CD in your possession and listenable on any CD player in the house. Ah well.

Mmm, almost time for school.

I want to twirl.

Keep twirling, TWIRLING towards the toolbar.

Yesh. Actual, physical CDs are good. Need more.

Heh... I just noticed that I dropped an 'it' there. Yes, I have to get up and physically twirl around to get my mouse where it needs to be!

Heh...sorry. That sentence just cried out for a Simpsons-quote rebuff.

I agree wholeheartedly!

Can you open up the bottom of your mouse? Maybe there's gunk built up on the inside. Either that or call for an exorcism 'cause that rodent's possessed.

I can keep cleaning it out and extend its life a bit that way, but eventually it just stops working right. This is about the eighth or ninth mouse I've lost the same way... can't for the life of me figure out why.

Demons it is then.
