Default I 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??

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.

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.

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

No, I have the "T". And I got the Z back on!! 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.

Make sure you don't take the puter to the vet and the cat to the shop.
It really could happen.

Out of interest, why is an L worse than a T, since T is the commoner
letter in English?
