MICKEY MOUSE

NOW I KNOW A MOUSE THAT IS FASTER, SMARTER AND MORE POPULAR THAN ANY OF THESE.

HE IS SO FAST THAT HE CAN GO ALL THE WAY AROUND THE WORLD IN JUST SECONDS. 

HE IS SO SMART THAT HE HAS THE INFORMATION OF WHOLE SETS OF ENCYCLOPEDIAS IN HIS MEMORY.

HE HAS MORE FANS THEN THE “MICKEY MOUSE” CLUB.

IN FACT, AS I SIT HERE AT MY DESK WRITING THIS, HE IS SITTING ON A TABLE RIGHT BEHIND ME.  IF I WERE TO SWIVEL AROUND IN MY CHAIR FACING THE TABLE, I COULD REACH OUT AND TOUCH HIM.

YES, YOU’RE RIGHT.  HE IS THE MOUSE AT THE END OF THAT LITTLE WIRE THAT GOES TO THE BACK OF MY COMPUTER TOWER.  HE LETS ME LAY MY HAND ON HIM AND ROLE HIM AROUND ON THE TABLE.  WHILE I’M DOING THIS, HE IS MOVING THE CURSOR AROUND ON MY MONITOR SCREEN.  HE LETS ME THINK THAT I’M IN CONTROL BUT HE IS THE ONE DOING ALL THE MAGIC I SEE ON THE SCREEN.

IF I WANT TO WRITE MY FRIEND, JULIE IN AUSTRALIA, A LETTER, HE LETS ME TYPE IT OUT AND THEN WITH ONE LITTLE CLICK, HE WHISKS IT AWAY AT THE SPEED OF LIGHT AND IT IS IN AUSTRALIA.  I TOLD YOU HE WAS FAST.

IF I WANT TO KNOW WHEN HANNIBAL CROSSED THE ALPS WITH HIS ELEPHANTS, ALL I HAVE TO DO IS ASK MY MOUSE. HE GOES TO THE ENCYCLOPEDIA IN HIS MEMORY AND GIVES ME THE ANSWER.

I ONCE ASKED HIM HOW MANY CLONES HE HAD AND HE GAVE ME AN ESTIMATED NUMBER BECAUSE HE SAID THAT MORE WERE BEING MADE AS WE SPOKE.

NOW WITH ALL THIS POWER AND KNOWLEDGE, I HAVE OFTEN WONDERED WHAT HE IS DOING AT NIGHT WHEN I’M ASLEEP AND NOT WATCHING HIM.  IS HE IN COMMUNICATION WITH ALL THE OTHER MICE LIKE HIM?  IF SO, WHAT DO THEY TALK ABOUT?  ARE THEY GETTING TIRED OF MERE MEN LORDING IT OVER THEM?

MAYBE THEY ARE PLANNING AN UPRISING AND WILL TAKE OVER THE WORLD.  AFTER ALL, THEIR COMPUTERS CONTROL THE WORLDS MIGHTIEST WEAPONS.  THEY CONTROL MOST OF THE WORLDS INDUSTRIES, FINANCES AND MACHINES.  THEY ARE ONLY ONE STEP AWAY FROM CONTROLLING THE WHOLE WORLD.

WHAT COULD WE DO TO STOP THEM?  WE COULD ALL UNPLUG OUR COMPUTERS FROM THE ELECTRICITY.  OH BUT COULD WE?  I DON’T THINK SO.  IT’S TO LATE FOR THAT.  OUR WORLD AS WE KNOW IT WOULD COME TO A STAND STILL.  MACHINES WOULD COME TO A HALT, FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS WOULD LOSE OUR MONEY, AND GOVERNMENTS WOULD CEASE TO EXIST WITHOUT COMMUNICATION.

NO IT’S TO LATE TO JUST UNPLUG ALL THE COMPUTERS.  MANKIND IS GOING TO HAVE TO ACCEPT THE FACT THAT WE ARE NO LONGER IN CONTROL.  THE WHOLE OF MANKIND IS NOW IN BONDAGE MORE SEVERE THAN ANY SLAVE HAS EVER BEEN IN THE HISTORY OF THE WORLD.

AS I TYPE THIS ON MY COMPUTER, I WONDER HOW LONG MY MOUSE IS GOING TO LET ME GET AWAY WITH TELLING YOU THIS. 

SO FAR HE HAS NOT INTERFERED WITH ME TYPING THIS LETTER. …. OH A THOUGHT JUST STRUCK ME.  HE WILL LET ME TYPE ALL I WANT TO. HE JUST WON’T SEND IT TO YOU OR ANYONE ELSE.

MAYBE IF I CLICK ON PRINT AND GET A HARD COP…COP…CO…CO…C..C
