and if all else fails, work.Oh you poor dear  . I know that feeling, when all you want to do it bounce around AWAD and there is your boss hovering around your desk. You have to practice the " concerned attention to a vital piece of information" look. Scrunch your eyebrows together while peering intently at the screen. Every four or five seconds press on "Caps Lock" a couple of times to make is seem as if you are moving through the document. It may happen that somebody will, after hovering around for a couple of minutes and not wanting to wait anymore, say "er, Bingley old chap." Then you move to the "oh all right let me just mark my spot since what you have to say is soooo important" move by doing the 'just one second' sign in a somewhat distracted way, with one hand holding up one finger just barely higher than your mouse - that'll prove you are so very concentrated in your work and they'll usually say "let me come back later". To which you just nod your head without taking your eyes off the screen. Just a suggestion of course _________________________________________________ I usually play Sherlock while waiting for page turns.

TEd! While I enjoy this Board greatly, and yield to no one* in my admiration for our ladies, if any (ayleurettes? does that make me an aileurophile?), how could I post in such a state?
---------- *exception made for the admiration Faldage holds, in the specific case rather than the general.

Now wait a minute here TEd. Unless your computer is wayyyy different than mine, all I can fiddle around with is the mouse. Now, unless you are into some sort of freaky rodent fetish you'll have to elaborate for us ladies [pure and innocent looking face]
Oh wait, if you are at home maybe you have one of those flight simulators or game thingies. Then I suppose you could play with your joystick.[snicker, snicker]

re: nless your computer is wayyyy different than mine, all I can fiddle around with is the mouse. Now, unless you are into some sort of freaky rodent fetish you'll have to elaborate for us ladies Bel, dear, not every one has a mouse any more.. some have touch pads, and lots of people these days got for balls, a track ball that is.. i suppose it should be singular.. computers only get one ball.. a trainer in the next cube over has a big red one.. i suppose it would be right to ask TEd if he has a big red one, too? or do you think he is a touchy kind of guy?

Ladies, one may presume that TEd's CPU ("Cental Processing Unit"} and related systems include ... a hippopotaMouse!
