I just realized that my keyboard has no "Scroll Lock" key.
Now how the hell am I supposed to get anything done?

Once my scrolling got unlocked, and since here in San Francisco we have lots of hills.. my monitor showed me that the page started to fall ..and falling faster and faster, and I screamed and thought I would die, but I hit the scroll lock just in time, and avoided crashing to the bottom of the page! It took me half an hour to crawl back up to the top of the page..but It was worth it...

I had a nice cup of hot coffee waiting for me, when I got to the top!

4. When I'm reading the Talmud, the scroll lock keeps it from rolling up on me.
It's a life-saver!

5. My dear Rabbi Orrex,
Thank you for the lovely scroll lock. I will treasure it always--much more so than that weird ass circumscraper you gave me for Christmas.
