[CaliforniaPeggy]

1. My dear Rev!

Mouse to mouse resusitation?

Sorry! I could NOT resist!

Nice to see you tonight!

:hug:

Check your PM in a moment...

[RevCheesehead]

2. ROFLMAO!

Oh, Peggy! :rofl:

Good to see you, sweetie! :hug:

[darkstar]

5. You so bad!!!

But in a good way....

:hug:

[Shine]

3. Mice cream?

sorry, bad pun. (It's all CalPeggy's fault. She gave me the idea with her post. )

:hi: Good luck. Bummer about your mouse. I have no idea. I'm not big on rodents.

[RevCheesehead]

4. Posting's a bitch....

but I'm sure I'd like some mice cream! :9

:hi:

[buzzard]

6. My mouse died too the one attached to my keyboard.

[RevCheesehead]

9. That's the one.

7. You have a Mouse Problem?

A typical case,
whom we shall
refer to as
Mr. A —
although his real
name is this:

ARTHUR JACKSON
32A MILTON AVENUE,
HOUNSLOW, MIDDLESEX

[RevCheesehead]

8. It's got to be the cheese..

All that scurrying about, you know.

:hi:

[Oeditpus Rex]

10. This isn't my night

One of my Python photo sites is messed up, and apparently I deleted my "It's the Cheese" graphic. x(

[RevCheesehead]

11. It's the thought that counts.

:hug:


Damn, now I got peanut butter on my keyboard! :banghead:

[Oeditpus Rex]

12. What kind?

I'm outta peanut butter. :cry:

[RevCheesehead]

13. Skippy Natural Super Chunk.

On 12-grain bread, with honey. :9

Want me to send you some? I'll pop a slice in my CD-ROM.

[Oeditpus Rex]

14. It's gotta be Roasted Honey Nut Skippy

or the mice don't eat.

[Critters2]

30. Peanut butter and honey

Nectar of the gods....and 12-grain bread to boot. Yum! :9

[RevCheesehead]

32. Are you sure we aren't related?

I grew up with PB&H. The 12-grain bread came later. :9

[Critters2]

33. When I was a kid, if we'd ask my dad to get cupcakes or

Twinkies or whatever, his response was always "You don't need any more sweets. We have peanut butter and honey." It is, after all, the perfect dessert.

15. I recommend a sledgehammer

Apply sledgehammer to mouse...oh, say twenty or thirty times.

This won't make the mouse work any better, but it's cathartic.

[RevCheesehead]

19. I love that idea!

I also love the word "cathartic." :)

[hfojvt]

16. are the rollers dirty?

Or does that only affect rats?


Pop the back open, remove the ball and clean the rollers.

Failing that, a new one is only about $6 thanks to the Chinese :hide:

[RevCheesehead]

20. Nah, this is an optical mouse.

The beady little eye is working fine. The problem's in the clicker.

[SoCalDem]

38. Just shake it... and shake it again

That cures my optical mousie :)

[AmyDeLune]

17. Eeek! A Mouse!!!

[RevCheesehead]

21. Drat! The first pic isn't showing up for me.

[AmyDeLune]

34. You're not missing anything, there's only one pic...

for some reason, Photobucket images with the image tags have that weird, broken link box in front of them.:shrug:

[Callalily]

18. May he

rest in peace!

Hey Rev . . . long time! :hi:

[RevCheesehead]

22. LOL!

I'm thinking of feeding it to one of my cats. :)

Good to see you, too! :hi:

[merh]

23. you have to clean it's little ball

or you could let it nibble your head, they like cheese. :silly:

:hi:

:hug:

:loveya:

[RevCheesehead]

24. ROFLMAO!!

Leave it to you to come up with that one!!! :rofl:

How are ya, sweetie? :hug::loveya:

[The Straight Story]

25. It saw one too many threads in GD and needs washed

:)

[RevCheesehead]

27. You got that right!

Actually, there was one in GD-P last night that probably set it off. :)

[Critters2]

31. Probably permanently traumatized

Years and years of therapy ahead.

[Xipe Totec]

26. Rub the ball and see if it gets back up n/t

[RevCheesehead]

28. Ah, the typical male solution?

:rofl:

[Xipe Totec]

29. No. Skip the lotion

:evilgrin:

[qnr]

35. No, but if it helps, mine is acting schizo tonight. n/t

[Jamastiene]

36. Take it to the vet.

They can work on them too. :hi:

[jberryhill]

37. Pull back the spring loaded bar...

...and stick in another piece of cheese.

[mwooldri]

39. Switch the mouse buttons over.

You can do this in Windows, make the left mouse button behave as the right one and vice versa.

Unless you're working with a Mac with a single mouse button... then you're outta luck.

[Connonym]

40. mouse to mouse resuscitation

ha!

ETA this was meant to go under CA Peggy's post sorry
