I just spilled a little sprite on my keyboard and now my spacebar doesn't work. I'm typing on a wireless keyboard I use with my laptop, which is fine - but I have to remember to turn it off every time I use it or I run down the batteries!!!

Do you think the spacebar may work after it dries out???

That's a good question!!! It's probably going to be sticky. I would just take it to your computer place and have them clean it, after that it should work.

A while back I was on Glen's computer (a BIG no-no) and Karlie came in from a nap and waved her arms around and knocked over my glass of sweet tea. I was so upset because I knew that I was in trouble. It ended up that Glen took the keyboard apart and was able to clean it up and he wasn't as upset with me as I was expecting. Anyway it works now and isn't sticky. Good luck with trying to get it unsticky.

I had a cordless phone that really worked well, and the keys began to get stuck a lot. I brought it to a fix-it store. The guy told me it wasn't worth fixing, blah, blah, blah. Anyway, it turned out to be juice in there. Mackenzie was very young then and she may have decided to feed the phone some juice.

Anyway, it is a fixable situation. If not, keyboards are inexpensive. Go to Yugster.com or Amazon.com.
