My first post. I added California as a topic and am cheering the Robinsons as they improve FReeRepublic.

Awww, that's so nice! Welcome to FRee Republic.

Now, I'm feeling kinda bad that I planned to post the words to Muskrat Love.

Did you try such mouse performance enhancing techniques as running three or more mice parallel/in sequence on the same treadmill? Non friction magnetic air bearngs?

And then did you motivate the mice with a concurrent carrot and stick approach. While he is out the on the treadmill, you project a holographic image at his rear of a hawk swooping out of the sky, and to his front an image of miss mouse lounging very seductively, as if waiting just for him.

No let me guess, you did not try any of that. You stuck with the American model of 'there is no substitute for cubic inches' paradigm and you are just going to run the meanest most resource hungry bunch of hamsters you can get to sign up.., sigh

Hhmmm, my very limited knowledge of 'possums' tells me you are running something that you mistook for a possum there. But if he's working for you 'possum' is a good a name as any.

Somebody has to post it...

IBM "Mouse Balls" memo:

Subject: IBM Ball replacement.....

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 manufacturer of the mouse.

Foreign balls can be replaced using the pop-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, and that any customer missing his balls should suspect local personnel of removing these necessary item.

To re-order, specify one of the following:

P/N 33F8462 - Domestic Mouse Balls

P/N 33F8461 - Foreign Mouse Balls

Cheers!

Best of luck!
