Hello fellow friends of fuzzies,
I have a warning for all of you people who haven't sent out money for Kodo
and/or the California weezils. Send whatever you can or your weezils will
have something to say about it. I found out the hard way. I had been
reading about Kodo case and the California efforts I hadn't done anything to
help out. Finally, my weezils had enough. They devised and ingenious
two-part plan to get me off my duff and do something. First, they waited
until I left a can of pop too close to the computer and then dumped it onto
the keyboard. I spent hours cleaning each individual key with rubbing
alcohol and a q-tip. It just so happened that the weezils concentrated most
of the pop on the "Alt" key, so now it has a tendency to stick. Anyone who
is running Windows knows that the "Alt" key used with other keys can be used
instead of a mouse to execute windows commands. So the second part of their
plan went into effect. They waited until I was away from the computer,
climbed up onto the desk, and proceeded to wardance on the keyboard, first
making sure the sticky "Alt" key was pressed. To make a long story short,
they wrecked havoc on my windows desktop, even deleting some program items.
It took me forever to restore the damage they did. So I had a long talk
with my weezils, and they helped me realize I should be doing all I can to
help, especially after they offered to give up Ferretvite and raisins so I
could send more money. So please, if you haven't sent what you can yet, do
it now. Or your weezils will find some devious way to torture
you........................................................(My "." key
sticks too)
