Elbows and Mouses

Elbows have generated a new problem. They live on the desk in front of the computer and cease to bend. Living only for balance of the fore finger. As it pushes on the mouse….a mouse used to have whiskers and make small funny noises. Bite and be chased by cats but no this one is small and has a side button and two clickers….- the forefinger is attached to the hand and I do believe the thumb on humans may actually be shrinking from lack of use – unless you call the space bar use on the key board. Now we are quickly going to new types of input into the computer and soon – will we just talk to it and watch it spell our words and create a paragraph –

When you create music will it be c-flat and suddenly the computer sings back to you – maybe it is already that way. Maybe that is why there are so many songs and singers and writers….maybe they do not have to use their time and erase and sing to themselves – hitting notes on a piano and placing writing on paper that may or may not be legible.

How many manuscripts changed due to poor hand writing? Maybe that is where some of the most clever of thoughts came into being…poor hand writing.

And to think it started with the Elbow!
