has this happened to you

you sit down to write a poem

you open the word program

you work for about an hour and get a decent text going

you step away from your computer for a minute to get some water another beer talk to your spouse etc etc

you come back to your computer and find it's locked

you have a devil of a time logging back on

because when you were gone your cat decided to do a little jig on your keyboard and switched the user interface

when you finally log back on you find your poem is now a mass text of xxxxxxs and gggggggs

and your poem is gone like tears in the rain while your cat is grinning if a cat can grin because you have to start again at the beginning

and you are seething like rambo wanting to draw first blood
