My DH was at the computer desk a few weeks ago and I heard a loud noise, (like something dropped) and then another noise. He didn't say a word. When I used the keyboard later, it only typed about half the letters. Mouse worked fine. The next day it was still misbehaving, so I called DH and he said something "might" have fallen on it.
I wasn't able to get to Radio Shack right away. Want to know something amazing? IT'S ALL BETTER NOW!!! I can't figure it out, cuz I didn't do anything special. Well, I DID replace the batteries (cordless), but that didn't fix it at the time. *cue spooky music*

Speaking about spooky music, boy have I got a funny story to tell you.
Don't know if you are a sci fi fan, BUT I AM. So I am always hunting for the old 1950's sci fi movies about people coming from the future and terrorizing the earth. So I found a gem. It's called Terror from the Year 5000.
It's up in like 10 parts on youtube. The odd thing about youtube is that even if you x out of it, it will still have the audio from the film you are watching.
So a few days ago, I finished watching the movie, I exited out of it, got off the computer, went about my business and I was in the kitchen.
Alan sits down the computer . There is nothing showing on the bottom of the screen that the internet was still up and running.
All of a sudden he starts yelling 'We have time travelers, we have time travelers"!!!!!
I said 'what on earth are you yelling about now"
He says "There is a time traveler from the year 5000 and he's speaking to me" "I tell you, there is a time traveler trying to communicate with us through the computer"
I thought the man lost his mind. I said 'you are crazy?" I look at the computer screen and we are not online!!!
He says "Oh really?? put on the headphones) we use headphones so as to not disturb the people downstairs.
I put on the headphones and I'm hearing the following:
"From the future, 5400 AD, from the future, Terror, from the future".
I still didn't get it. I'm listening and I'm going "What the h???"
He looks at me and says "I always knew there was time traveling and now they have contacted us"
I started to laugh, I bring up mozilla, and there on the screen is the film I was watching. TERROR FROM THE YEAR 5000.
I said" 'not only are you NOT communicating with a time traveler, you are listening to some trailer from this movie"
The look on his face was priceless.
Remind me to tell you what I put him through the day in 1995 when the film Independence Day came out.
I had him running into the street.
I'm that good!!
lol
