29/Nov/17 hard to use a mouse with this mussle

Good morning Cape Breton.

Maximus Handsomius here from my forever home.

The Big Guy was telling me, way back in the day, they didn't have a mouse for their computers.  They would have this keyboard overlay and it would have all the keyboard short cuts on it.  You would laminate it.  If you didn't have an overlay, you had a tough time remembering all the keyboard short cuts.

Then, one day, at work, they got this new item and it was called a mouse.  The Big Guy told his crew, they all had to learn how to work the computer's mouse.  So, each person in the office was given an hour a day to play solitaire on the computer.  This forced them to learn how to use the mouse.

Now, people couldn't imagine operating a computer without a mouse.

But when ever you look at the Big Guy's favorite program, Star Trek, they don't use a mouse when operating their computers.  They either talk to the computer, or use touch screens.  Then they have the holodecks for their games.

I'm pretty sure that the Big Guy would be impressed if his XBox was a whole room in the house.

Do you remember reading yesterday's blog?  I was talking about this dog that was barking a lot at me?  I wasn't able to remember his name.  Well I remember it today.  His name is "Darcy".  There was a lady that came outside to get Darcy to stop barking at me and the Big Guy.  Well when she went outside, she was only in her sock feet.  The Big Guy and Tonya works with her Father-in-law.  His name is Rob.  She got her feet wet cause Darcy was pulling on his lead so much and she went into the grass, while he was pulling her around in the dew and frost covered ground.  Perhaps next time, she will wear shoes.

We had a visitor show up to the house last night.  She wanted to tell us, how much she LOVED our house.  That it was decorated so nicely.  The Big Guy has used LED lights in the past.  But he put them away last year and can't seem to find them this year.  So he used those older lights.  Well they are bigger and brighter.  She was saying how the other houses looks nice, but that ours looks the nicest as we are using the old fashioned XMas bulbs to decorate our house.

She was also fascinated by the little green and red lights that were ALL over the house.  She was asking Tonya, how did I get so many little lights all over the house.  Tonya tried to explain, twice, it was the two lazers that are in the ground.  She kept touching the house, trying to touch the lights.  She told Tonya that the lights are not warm to the touch, but certainly are beautiful.  Tonya gave up trying to explain to her about the lazers.

Bye bye fur now.
