The contraption above is, as much as anything, responsible for increasing the enjoyment of my fishing season. It is an ergonomic keyboard. I had developed repetitive stress disorder this year, due to excessive time hunched over the condensed keyboard of my laptop. I felt it in my wrists and forearms every time I made a cast. It got so that before and after every fishing trip, I’d chop up an Aleve on the mirror. Then I put in a requisition for one of these trippy Lewis Carroll-esque keyboards, and after using it for about a month, the problem went away. The ultimate solution to all work-related problems is, of course, to win Megamillions, but so far I’ve never gotten more than two numbers on a ticket. Still, I like my chances.
