Bad keyboard + Baseball bat = working keyboard?

Ok, so my friends keyboard stopped working so we got a replacement. I then took the old keyboard and for fun I hit it with a baseball bat. Next I decided to check and see if the keyboard would work now that it had been maimed. Guess what? It works now. Every key.

Moral of the story kids? Hit your old keyboard with a baseball bat and it may magically spring to life.

Been too long


Wow, it has been way too long since I have updated this thing. Guess I got really busy. It is understandable as I am graduating in a couple months, then I have no idea what I am going to do. I have a couple technology companies interested in hiring me, but if I get into grad school I will go there. Well, I would write more but I have been feeling ill these past couple days so I am going to take a nap before help sessions tonight

8/25/07: Update/correction. Changed magnetic to electric, thanks to dr vogel


Could i develop a dual layered electric field that when rain entered the first layer it would be positively charged and when it hit the second layer, it would be repelled by another positive charge? hmmm. I have a long way to go with this idea

What is a bigger number? 6 or 172? now If i do my calculations right, every american miner is worth 28.666666666 chinese...hmm, now what have you heard more about? I had to do a search for China to find the article on the chinese mine flood, but i had to go to my frontpage to find the american mine collapse... Makes you wonder if the world is as small as we think it is

So i think i came up with a good idea of how the fulcrum of my trebuchet will work. i think it needs a little work but it should be ok. I think the only problem i may come upon is the lever arm falling out.
