Optics of Whisky


Wonderous stories: I do wonder why a basic computer mouse's cable, supplied by our good friends at Amazon, needs to be about four feet long. Who has arms this length and why would you ever need to be that distance away from your computer/laptop and wouldn't you just use a wireless mouse if you did need to be some distance from said device? Life is full of sweet mysteries like this. The cable is not only too long but also annoyingly kinky, not in a good way.

Another one that I'm encountering is where exactly is the spell checker that used to be on the blogger app? I know the actual full checker disappeared some time ago but up until recently mispelled words were underlined in red. This was very helpful for uneducated monkeys like me and now I have full blown spell checker paranoia. This cannot go one. I may well have to resort to asking some AI squiggle where the old google spelly thing is, or has it been axed in some low level economy drive that nobody asked for? We'll find out downstream.

At the moment I'm enjoying fine whisky now and again, served in fancy glasses, here's one I may swallow later in the day.
