A little birdie by the name of Amanda sent me this howto of how to turn a mouse into a computer mouse. That's not a manufactured toy mouse. That's a veritable, 100% deceased mouse that has been turned into a computer mouse with a USB plugin — complete with a working scroll wheel and optical sensor! Rightfully so, it has been dubbed the "mouse mouse".
It's nice to see taxidermy put to new and exciting uses. As you probably know, bear rugs are so passe, and tigers are too rare. Mice, though, are easy to come by and have very short life spans. In short, they are the perfect candidate for stuffing and you can make them into lots of other things besides mice. I'm thinking wallets, cameras, and MP3 players.
To give you a personal anecdote, there's a huge mouse infestation at my job. Today, a mouse crawled into a coworker's purse in order to eat a cookie she had in there. Suffice it to say, there was some high drama. Well, I think this would be the perfect scenario for a mouse mouse. The punishment for making one's way into a lady's purse should be taxidermy.
