Computer Malfunction

This bewildering computer of mine just gives me fits! I panic when the consarned thing goes on the fritz! I peruse the baffling manual but that doesn't help me any. It might as well have been written in Hindustani! There is no one more computer illiterate than I, So I must call that guy in India when things go awry! He patiently checks for spyware and virus infections, And tests the modem and internet connections. Today he found no problems during his troubleshoot. He suggested that I shut down and try to reboot! As a parting shot he asked if my cursor was working alright; I reached for the mouse to check - it was nowhere in sight! At that mortifying discovery I gently hung up the phone. Consternation reigned - how much more can I condone! The frayed mouse tail lay there looking so grotesque. I looked for the mouse on the floor and all about my desk! Alas, nothing to do but buy another for it to replace. But wait! Why that Cheshire smile on my pussy cat's face? "Aha! I think the mystery is solved!" I exclaim to my spouse! "I think that sneaky scoundrel has swallowed my mouse!" Robert L. Hinshaw, CMSgt, USAF, Retired (© All Rights Reserved)
