atw: Re: Mouses??

Doe!

It won't be easy to Buck that trend.

Sounds like a load of Bullwinkle to me.

BJM: Hey Rocky!  Watch me pull several mouse devices out of my hat
RJS: But that trick never works, without a collective noun!
BJM: This time for sure. Presto!
RJS: Just looks like a herd of mouses to me.
BJM: Hmm.  I've never heard of mouses before?

So we now need a collective noun for mouse devices.
(Perhaps a Mouse De-Vice Squad?)

Meeses still gets my vote.

Cheers,

Micky G.
