Ezzie's Blog Roundup, 11/28: Black Keyboards

It's amazing how much the details matter in life, and how people ascribe their own level of importance to details. Women across the world will get upset or insulted if a man doesn't understand the difference between their 18 pairs of black shoes... while men get frustrated that women think football is "just a bunch of men running into each other!" It's the details that matter in life.

I never thought that using a new keyboard would be such a great difficulty. The keys are actually great, the option and shortcut buttons as good as or better than what we had... but the keys and keyboard are all black. The old one? White. Now, this normally isn't a big deal, and it actually looks nicer on the desk in front of the monitor. But... it's hard to see at night! The living room isn't the brightest, and I don't always want to have a light on nearby... but I can't see the keys well. I don't often look at the keyboard, but every once in a while I glance down - but now, this doesn't help me and I'm making a lot more mistakes than normal. So often, the little details matter.

And now, on to the Top 10 [or not] from the J-blogosphere:

• 10) Robbie gets himself a flush, which may be worth more than money.
  
• 9) SoccerDad notes that some people are (as they often are) huffing against Israel.
  
• 8) BeyondBT is looking for some direction.
  
• 7) Elie has some fun word puzzles. (If you're into that.)
  
• 6) RenReb pops in with some nice shoes.
  

And now, rounding out the Top 5:

• 5) Sarah gets some interesting visitors to her blog.
  
• 4) Robert has a real-life script to write about after an interesting conversation in the Dan Panorama.
  
• 3) Fudge has quite the grandmother. I think grandmothers are the best, like the one who came all the way across a wedding hall to tell me to put a sweater on Elianna.
  
• 2) Yitzchak notes a study that says women talk 3x as much as men. Only 3 times?! Yeah, right.
  
• 1) Hayom discusses the real issues. Amen.
  

Enjoy!
