Re: Mouse infestation
It has come to my attention that Angie has been complaining about a
mouse problem. Get on the ball and get rid of the critters.

It's her laptop's mouse, sir.

Re:Mouse infestation
I don't care if it prefers to munch on her personal computer or
mine, get rid of it. Hire 'Rodent Be Gone'. They're a bit expensive
but they did a great job on the old Nautilus when we were berthed
next to a banana boat.

Re: Mouse infestation
Sir. The problem is that her laptop mouse doesn't work, even though
there is nothing wrong with the driver.

From: Adm. Nelson
To: You idiots
Re: Mouse infestation
I don't recall hiring any rodents to work at NIMR, and if I did,
what has it to do with chauffering anyone around when one of the
drivers is sick.

Re: Mouse infestation
Well, at least I don't have to pay it in cheese. Is it working yet?

Re: Mouse infestation
No, the technicians haven't been able to figure it out...Angie will
just have to use her finger pad... she's already broken two
fingernails.

To: Angie
Re: Mouse infestation
Find in procuremen, just purchased, a new laptop. Easier than trying
to figure out that mouse business.

To: Adm. Nelson
Re: Mouse infestation
Gee sir, thanks, but it only needed a battery, and had to be
reset..so sorry for all the fuss. May I keep the new laptop anyway?

Re: Mouse infestation
Of course, my dear. It's always helpful to have a backup...but I'm
not paying for your trip to the nail salon.

Re: Mouse infestation
Harry, you old salt, I understand you've had a bit of a rodent
problem...find down at the procurement office when you return to
port, a guarenteed remedy.

Re: Mouse infestation
Thank you for your kind offer of help, however, what on earth am I
going to do with a kitten? Besides, by now you've heard how I
totally misunderstood the situation.

Re: Mouse infestation

found it a good home, and he says there's not a mouse in the place,
figuratively and literally.
