 | | It's back! It's back!
Just in time for that article I've been commissioned to write! No more mucking about to erase all the `s and ~s surrounding my ps and Ps! Somehow the altitude or the shacking about in the boot of the car over 3000 kilometres of Canadian mountain roads has reversed the effect of that glass of bourbon on the keyboard!
Huzzah!
Oh b*last. I've spilled my b*loody b*eer.

 | | Yes, I could `plug in a USB keyboard. But the only one I have is at home. ~Plugged into my deskto`p.
I've been `putting u`p with this for a cou`ple of months now. When I do something mildly im`portant, I either use a different com`puter or ty`pe normally and fix things later with search and re`place.
It was just very strange that it started working `pro`perly for a few minutes.

Welcome back, Tal. Long time no see.

I have a ca`pital `problem on another com`puter: Left shift key doesn't work anymore because that's the 'run' button in Quake.

| | Sounds like a challenge for you- write a reasonably long series of sentences without using that letter. It seems to be quite easy until you get to something that is not easily described in a way that isn*t awkward. By some accounts, that letter is used 1.929 times out of a hundred in common English- that is the 16th most common letter, far behind *a* and *e*. It isn*t commonly linked with another letter but it is often doubled.
Insomnia makes for odd ideas.
