I get this story.
A computer support technician worked with a gentleman for about hour before giving up. He filed an incident report. In the space where he was asked to define the situation, he wrote, "The problem resides between the keyboard and the chair."
I get that. Between the keyboard and the chair is where most of my computer problems reside, and probably most of my other problems, too. As much as I may like to blame things that go wrong in my life on other people or on situations out of my control ("I can't help it . . ." "It wasn't my fault . . ."), I am aware that they are too often a result my own mistakes. And I've made plenty of mistakes.
