Saw this advertised on Freecycle today:

Dell desk top computer with muse and keyboard

I could really do with a muse right now, but somehow I doubt that's what was meant...

Don't see why not. Not really my sort of music, unfortunately.

You know, considering that you can buy a mouse for next to nothing, it feels weird to include it in the headline for the ad as if it had value. So I'm betting it really is muse. :)

If only... They're giving the thing away, maybe they think it will attract more people who want it if they mention the mouse.

I've wondered for some time who is the Muse of Gaming. Clearly both you and I have been visited by her (or by them, if writing games and running sessions have different muses). Would this be one of the functions of Calliope? Or does it have its own Muse, perhaps a daughter of Calliope or Thalia?

Good question - whoever she is, I REALLY don't want to annoy her! Remember the Sandman story Calliope?
