Didn't you ever experience a thing called fads? Similar sort of thing
except this thing lasts over a longer term. A game/toy is introduced
to a school... it catches on, and by the time the 'unpopular kids' get
one of these toys... the toy is deemed 'lame' and the next toy/game is
found to be cool. Also the trend on the tv's where they use older
music (60's and 70's rock music for example) or older terms/fads
(Tiedye, etc) to 'pull in' the older viewers. It's teh preverbial,
everthing old is new thing.
I heard that the latest "thing" is to take your computer to the dump, wait
a while, and then see how long it takes to retrieve it and get it working
again. Whoever succeeds after waiting the longest, wins. Maybe you could
give that a try.
Maybe you should take your mouse and tie it to your front. Think about it.

I wanna turn mine into a rat. Put those adhesive googly eyes on the
buttons with whiskers on the side. Dare to be different. ;D

I like using these:
http://www.perpetualkid.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=1849
....lots of fun stuff on that site, like the pirate/police line
band-aids, the USB coffee warmers, etc.
I don't recommend the key covers though, they don't fit tightly on the
keys, the rubber material is too thick so then your keys don't fit on
a standard key ring and the rubber material usually winds up getting
ripped after just a little bit of use. About the only nice thing
they're good for is if you have a real stubborn door lock and you
don't want to strain and hurt yer thumb tryin to turn the damn key.
