Mouse Riding

 One-handed, adrenalin-filled action for desk jockeys with flexibility, coordination and fast reflexes
  (+15)(+15)

At the front of the powered mouse are two sharp horns. In between is a braided cord to be twisted around the index finger. Thumb and ring finger spur rings are optional.

At random intervals, the mouse will suddenly start to buck, spin, rear back and jump from side to side. Holding the mouse button down for eight seconds can earn you passing points. Keeping your pinkie in the air and use of the spurs improves your score.

If your hand gets thrown off, stay clear of the gouging horns and kicking ball.

       I tried not to - but you won - and I laughed. You got a flakey roll.

       <off topic> I want to know what happened to the "Low Ink Warning" idea. </off topic>

       It was there earlier when I posted a link to a 29 cent transparent Bic pen.   

       I smell an illustration.

       Yeah. Good sense of smell. Sigh. Oh well.

       Even without the horns, it would be nifty if your mouse could occasionally wander about the desk by itself.

       So does yours [rcarty].
