How to Clean Your Mouse
This memo is from an unnamed computer company. It went to all field engineers about a computer peripheral problem. The author of this memo was quite serious, but the engineers rolled on the floor:
"Mouse balls are now available as FRU (Field Replacement Unit). Therefore, if a mouse fails to operate or should it perform erratically, it may need a ball replacement. Because of the delicate nature of this procedure, replacement of mouse balls should only be attempted by properly trained personnel.
"Before proceeding, determine the type of mouse balls by examining the underside of the mouse. Domestic balls will be larger and harder than foreign balls. Ball removal procedures differ depending upon the manufacturer of the mouse. Foreign balls can be replaced using the pop-off method. Domestic balls are replaced by using the twist-off method. Mouse balls are not usually static-sensitive. However, excessive handling can result in sudden discharge.
"Upon completion of ball replacement, the mouse may be used immediately. It is recommended that each replacer have a pair of spare balls for maintaining optimum customer satisfaction. Any customer missing his balls should suspect local personnel of removing these necessary items."

What is it about balls~~
Balls are so over rated with the internet. In life too.
When I had webtv, there were/was? no such thing as balls.
Now I have Hal Laptop, and his mouse hides his balls, without a peek.
Hal and I have no balls at all.

Did you know that in Sweden "mouse" is slang for a womans privates? Takes the sentence "remove the balls from the mouse" [down] to a whole new level (deep deep down!
).

Too funny! I am a happy woman. I have no mouse, and I have No balls to contend with! I am a "webber". I recently received a traffic violation. I went online and took the traffic school course. My final test was on a computer. I have never been more frustated! That mouse was flying all over the place--maybe it had no balls!!! I failed the first time, but when they instructed me to try the arrows, I passed with flying colors.
