So, I was on The Internets, doing The Google, when I hit a glitch ...

I was typing on the typewriter part of the computer, looking at the television screen part, and using that little doohickey that is connected to it -- I call it "The Rat." The screen kinda got all jumpy and then froze. Do you think that maybe a hamster or a squirrel got into one of The Tubes of The Internets and clogged it up?

1. I'll call the e-plumber.

2. Maybe one of those roto-rooter things would unclog the tube.

:shrug:

6. You clearly know NOTHING about the internets.

A clog that big needs a professional.

3. There's one way to find out...

Melt a few yogurt treats on a cd and insert it into the D drive. If there are hamsters in there, they'll head for the cd.

4. this CD of which you speak, it is the shiny circle thingy, yes?

[GoddessOfGuinness]

5. Yes. Sometimes hamsters will run on them, too.

You can use the same technique on floppy disks.
