When it rains, it pours ... isn't that how it goes?

In other words ... things happen in multiple blows

First one thing goes wrong, and then another does

As the dominoes fall ... mutliplying all of the dust



Today, it was hard drive problems at the start ...

And then, in time ... yet another became part ...

Of the overall problem ... the mouse got dizzy

And it took awhile to figure out what kept it busy



Finally decided to disconnect the PS/2=style bus port

And switch back to an MS Pro Mouse, which caught

... And now, I'm moving quite merrily right along ...

And the new dead mouse is boxed, stopped mid-song
