Using Live Mice...

Posted on 03/20/2007 12:30:33 PM PDT by John Robinson

We technicians here in the Free Republic server room experimented with real mice attached to our computers. Unfortunately, not one mouse survived being plugged-in for more than a few minutes. We've reverted back to the hamsters, they're more durable and they know how to dance to the electronic pop music we enjoy.

You should notice a significant improvement in response time.

Go go hamsters.

I can see your tagline cross

At #77 & #80?

Looks like I picked the wrong day to quit amphetamines...

Who'd a thunk that sausage making and FreeRepublic would have so much in common.

We love the product, but really don't want to see how it's made.

All kidding aside, thanks for taking care of us John!

Basil, basil... hamsters are mice without a (long) tail, hence, wireless mice.

...Lots of RATS in New York City. Something about some Taco Bell there. But NYC has rats of both flavors -- the voting kind and the type that are cousins to mice, rabbits, and other critters...
