While, into my fifth day of working on the problem of the "rrrreeeeaaaallll sslllooooowww" computer. I get a visit from my girlfriend's 3 year-old grandson, who is so thoroughly fascinated with computer's that I gave him one of which he uses when he comes over to visit with us. Now, mind you that I am frazzled on this fifth day, I know I will have to drop everything to give her grandson the attention that a 3 year-old deserves. Before I can close out of the BIOS, he bursts into the room with this huge smile on his face, and I notice his right hand is going for the mouse. He gives it a few clicks and shakes releases it and runs out of the room laughing like a madman. Halfway out of my seat with shock, I remind him that his computer is downstairs. I sit down wondering what damage to the BIOS might have been done, as I listen to the laughter as it fades down the stairs. What will I do now? I do not have [5] more days to spend on this! So, I turn it off to ponder the outcome, and think of how I can tell my daughter that her father let a 3 year-old jack-up her computer. I turn it back on after praying, and to my amazement it is working! Not only working but working better and faster than any of my other computer's. I run downstairs to announce the news to everyone, and her grandson [Imanuel] looks up at me from his computer and laughs the laugh of a madman. What I haven't told the group is this. I made the request for his visit! Whenever I am at my wits end with a project, I ask his parents to bring him over so that he can work his magic. He has done this on [3] other occasions. I would either leave the room and he attacks the project, or turn my head for a moment and this little hand would appear from under the desk click and shake the mouse, then all is fixed. I cannot explain it! Furthermore, it is true.
