Another boring day here, and another day spent tweaking Vista. It's all I've done since Monday, except for a few hours at work yesterday. I spent some time with the dog, too, which makes me great in her eyes. That and Schmacko's, and she's set.

Did you hear about the guy here in Georgia who got ran over by his own steamroller? Yeah, yeah, I know it sounds like a setup, but it's for real. The guy got off it to check something, and left it running, and it ran over him. There was a guy working nearby who saw it, and they said he was beyond distraught. I can imagine so. So I told this to someone last night, and then said, "I bet his wife was crushed." I really didn't

mean it the way it came out. But even if she wasn't, he was. Oh, God, please forgive me.

I have another minor dilema now. I have this perfectly good HP keyboard hooked up right now. To load Vista, you have to disconnect everything USB, which includes wireless keyboards and mice. So I dragged out this one that came with the new computer. The mouse is no great shakes; it's a rollerball mouse, wired in. The problem is I really, really like typing on this keyboard. The keys just have a better feel to them than my almost-new Logitech Wireless Keyboard, which is shiny and fancy and stuff. So do I use the keyboard that came with the unit, or do I switch back to the one I spent about $50 bucks on not long back? I'd feel awfully guilty if I don't use it, you know. That would be a waste of money. But wouldn't this be a waste, also? And what if it inspires me to use it more? I know I can type faster on it than the other, already. Oh, well, let the keyboard wars begin.
