Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / February 2005I love my cat
Just keep saying it. Over and over. Even when she breaks the "T" key completely off your key board so that now all you have is a little rubber nubby. I'm hoping I can just buy another "T" and not have to get a whole new keyboard. Gagh. Why did it have to be the t. Why not X or Z?? > Just keep saying it. Over and over.

Gagh. Why did it have to be the t. Why not X or Z?? Why not indeed. Just, well, maybe, perhaps, just pop off the Z, relabel it a T for fun, and put it on the T key? Some keys pop on and off. Some don't. You might want to run a color test before breaking your keyboard by accident. Do you have a spare keyboard laying around or one from the trash that you can liberate a T from? Never know with these things. I just took apart a calculator whose keys froze. I don't know why. All the keys fell out when I took out all the screws. Put the thing back together and it works. I have no idea why it works now and not before. Same thing with my IBM laptop. The "L" stopped working. That's worse than a "T" - not sure how much worse. I was so made I just stomped on that L and it's been working fine, just does not make a click sound anymore but I can live with an L that is silent as opposed to an L that is noisy and does not work. >> Just keep saying it.

OK, now I have two nubby keys. But that's ok. What's worse is Grant just threw up some blood. Soooooo, that puts things in perspective. *sigh* Believe I will be taking tomorrow off and taking Grant to the vet and the computer to the shop. > OK, now I have two nubby keys. But that's ok.

Purrs for Grant to be OK (and purrs for your keyboard, too).

No, I'm afraid there is something else going on. He threw up this am but there was no blood in it. He ate again, but he has been doing the lip licking naseau thing all morning. We have a 1:30 appt. I am just praying it is just hair. >>>>> Just keep saying it. Over and over.

Make sure you don't take the puter to the vet and the cat to the shop. It really could happen. ;) Theresa Stinky Pictures: http://community.webshots.com/album/125591586JWEFwh My Blog: http://www.humanitas.blogspot.com >>> Just keep saying it. Over and over.

Probably too late, but purrs and well wishes for Grant to feel better soon. As for the keyboard. I figure that Dave Yehuddah was responsible for me doing comparison pricing on keyboards at Staples. I usually spent about $25 for a new one. I went through four of them thanks to Dave. I spent the most fun $100 in my life because of that man....

I'm at work wondering how the poor boy is doing. He had to go back for todays round of hunt the problem. I found a place online that sells individual keys for a Mac iBook. This place is great and has VERY inexpensive refurbished Macs too. If anyone is interested it is http://www.wegenermedia.com/ and by golly, I ordered it yesterday and it shipped last night!

Because my right hand rests on the keyboard and in typist fashion, my ring finger is on the L key. I use the L key a great deal. Things like l)oad or so it seems for some of my keyboard shortcuts. Although Samuel Morse [code] orginally deduced that T is more common than L by looking at the typesets of printers, this may not be the case for my particular needs. What works for the commoner does not work for me. lllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll lllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll llllllll >>> Same thing with my IBM laptop.

If you visit places like Goodwill, you can often find keyboards for less than five dollars. Kristy >> Luckily I found a place on line that sells just the keys.

Just to remind you that "T is for TUNA" - so you go out and buy some instead of spending all day at the keyboard ;-) Just don't tell my cats about this, please... Cheers, helen s |
