Blogging may be light in the next few days. I am having computer problems that probably require professional attention. My mouse does not do what it is supposed to do, but it doesn’t seem to be a mouse problem. Sigh.
Everything takes me three times as long as it normally would, and I am becoming exceedingly cranky as opposed to my usual sweet and gentle self. I might even end up saying rude things about Republicans as well as Democrats, and that just won’t do.
I am now operating with a corded keyboard and mouse, which at least work, but the cords are more than annoying.
What we need is a program that investigates your computer and tells you which program is not working. This is it the mouse? Is it the keyboard? Is it the wireless connector? Is it Windows instead? Who do I call and why don’t they speak the same language that I do?

…and apparently that camels could skate. It’s Jon Stewart’s own “Turkey Drop“:
No joke: The Daily Show brought a camel to the protests in Madison the other day, presumably to help make fun of the Cairo/Madison comparisons. As this video shows, the gag didn’t turn out so well:
Who knew that an animal indigenous to the Middle East couldn’t walk on snow and ice in the Midwest? Local firefighters eventually rescued the camel. The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports that the Daily Show didn’t use any footage of the camel in its Tuesday night broadcast.
Poor thing! I wonder if PETA will protest the Daily Show?
